Thank you all for your advice, ill pass them all on, beating with the shoes sounds perfect! May just try it !

I could only hope

With an RM network you can not use group policy, what patch did you use and do you know where i can get it?

We are trying. Unfortuantly we are stressing to staff to bring their computers up to the office so we can scan them. Becuase members of staff arnt, we are fighting a loosing battle everytime we disconnect servers and scan computers, on the monday the staff who refuse to bring their laptops to us infect everything again.. Dont you just hate schools!?

I personally wouldn't, we upgraded from CC3 to CC4 last year and I REALLY wish we hadn't!! its awful!

Hi all, When we moved from CC3 to CC4 we went from being able to rebuild three computer rooms at a time to only building four computers! Now, we are unable to build anything. Our infrastructure is gigabit throughout the whole school... When we build computers over the network.. The computer builds fine until it gets to the "Adding Computers to the Network" at this stage the computer freezes and goes no further. We do have a virus on both of our networks.. one is RM one is just a windows based network, which we call the "Admin System". On the Admin System we can build computers absolutely fine. Anyone had any situations like this? I don't personally think its the virus, I think RM are trying to pass the blame on. Thanks, Tom

Whats the sharepoint site called, Escimo by any chance?

Works on 10.34.71.10... odd?

Ive changed my IP on my office computer to 10.34.70.15 and i can ping server (10.34.68.11) I still can not ping CCTVSERVER though (10.34.70.5) Pinging 10.34.70.5 with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 10.34.70.15: Destination host unreachable. Request timed out.

Somthing must be interfering with the whole range of 10.34.70.x then. Let me change the ip of my office computer to that range and see what happens?

Ive changed the IP so it is out of the 10.34.70.x range and into the 10.34.68.x range (same as my office computer) and it works fine. Maybe it is an issue with the Subnet Mask?

Still didnt work..Tried a new Network Lead also. I also tried changing the IP to 10.34.70.5, still nothing. The main switch(s) have all the servers on them which is down the corridor, my switch in the ICT Office is cabled to the same switch as the CCTVSERVER and SERVER.

I will change to the other NIC see if that fixes the issues? Tom

Ok tried that.. I get on the ping an instant success then.. "Timed out" 10.34.70.2 with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 10.34.70.2: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Request timed out.

Another strange thing just happened. I tried to ping it through the server name (which didnt work previously) Pinging cctvserver [10.34.70.11] with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 10.34.70.11: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Reply from 10.34.70.11: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Reply from 10.34.70.11: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Reply from 10.34.70.11: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Ping statistics for 10.34.70.11: Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss), Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds: Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms As you can see it worked.. I then tried RDP, it worked.... Literally 2mins later.. i now cant RDP and... Pinging cctvserver [10.34.70.11] with 32 bytes of data: Request timed out. Request timed out. Request timed out. Request timed out. Ping statistics for 10.34.70.11: Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss),

RDP, I normally use the IP but neither the server name (cctvserver) or 10.34.70.2 works But i cant even ping it; Pinging 10.34.70.2 with 32 bytes of data: Request timed out. Request timed out. Request timed out. Request timed out. Ping statistics for 10.34.70.2: Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss),

The server allowed me to connect to it when it has an IP of 10.34.68.180. But I wanted all CCTV to be in the range of 10.34.70.x as we have a lot of cameras now. Nothing has been changed on it at all. Its really odd.

Ah, I have no idea what the issue is then :S

lol! What does it need to be?

Could it be an issue with the wrong Subnet Mask for the ranges?

This is the ipconfig for CCTVSERVER; Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Broadcom BCM5708C NetXtreme II GigE (NDIS VBD Client) Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-1C-23-BA-B8-1C DHCP Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : No IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.34.70.2 Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.0.0 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 10.34.68.1 DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.34.68.11 Yeah ive tried the firewall issue. Ive tried on XP, Windows 7. I can remote in to CCTVSERVER through SERVER though.

We have recently upgraded our IP Subnet so we have the following range; 10.35.68.1 - 10.34.70.254 We basically have done this so all of our CCTV is on the range 10.34.70.x Our main Server is IP 10.34.68.11 Our CCTV Server is IP 10.34.70.2 We can get our server to ping out cctv server but my office computer or any computer to that fact cannot ping it or gain access to it. My computer information as follows; Ethernet adapter Admin Connection: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Realtek RTL8168C(P)/8111C(P) Family PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC (NDIS 6.20) Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-24-1D-D5-9D-98 DHCP Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : No Autoconfiguration Enabled . . . . : Yes Link-local IPv6 Address . . . . . : fe80::ddcb:ab11:30dd:48d4%11(Preferred) IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 10.34.68.145(Preferred) Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.0.0 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : fe80::3045:e6e7:ba12:612c%11 10.34.68.1 DHCPv6 IAID . . . . . . . . . . . : 234890269 DHCPv6 Client DUID. . . . . . . . : 00-01-00-01-13-75-AE-B6-00-24-1D-D5-9D-98 DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.34.68.11 NetBIOS over Tcpip. . . . . . . . : Enabled Does anyone have any ideas at all?
