Version: FM 4.1v3

This has happened once before- and restarting the server solved the problem- What happened again is that all PC

users would lose their connection to the database, and then were not able to see files listed under Hosts after restarting the PC.

Brief description of setup:

Main Site 1 is connected to remote Site 2 thru a T1 line.

What OS is the SERVER?

Server version is 3.0v4. OS on the G4 is 8.6.

Interestingly enough, another G4 is the server for the HR Database, but no PC user has lost a connection to the files on this server.

It is running OS 9.04. However, I am starting to wonder if there is a problem specific to the G4 that is cuttin goff the PC users.

FYI for you all if you run into the same problem:

We tracked the problem to a "rogue" computer that had the same TCP address as the server. My NT guy had forgotten to reserve that address for the Mac server, and after a while, someone got the same DHCP address assigned to them, causing a conflict with the Mac Server. (This again only was booting out the PCs.)
