if you are still having this problem.... tell me about that switch. And how many boxes are there that connect directly to the firewall? Just as a silly question that might spark a useful thought -- do you have any vlans set up? I ask because if the vista machine can get dhcp from the pdc, then you have connectivity to the firewall and from the firewall to the pdc and back. Another random question -- this is not a new configuration, right? It was the same setup and working when the box had XP? In which case Matthew will probably be more help than I as my expertise and certifications are in really high-volume enterprise hardware. Still, I will give it some thought, you never know when poking a problem might produce a solution.
