Hmmm, there were some events that implicated a gigabit network card. I
disabled that, will see if things improve.

Hope that helps. Nick.
I am using Group Policy, but haven't changed anything since early
December.
There are some weird events, mostly they point back at bad DNS settings
(and systems not being able to talk to each other).
I'll try to post some of them later this afternoon.
Does anybody have a guide to setting up W2K DNS on campus?
I had to install that last fall to replicate my AD to other servers, but
I don't think it has ever been configured correctly.

WINS could be. Doug could check that for you. Or run trace route.
No, I haven't changed or even looked at the security settings since early
December.
I am getting occasional messages about duplicate IP addresses, but they
don't show a pattern. (and the affected systems all use DHCP, shouldn't
really be duplicated) I wonder if the NIC is corrupting
packets?
thanks for the suggestions!
