The way our current network is setup, all of our servers are in the PSN, and the only things on PRI are the workstations. The reason for this setup is that we are a web hosting & web design company. All the servers that we have up have public services on them.
However, this appears to be causing us some headaches... Lag in communications - There's a workstation that uses our Exchange server, and the delay in opening messages makes it feel like the box is on the 'Net instead of a LAN Delayed write failures - I can't work on databases if I leave them on the server. I have to either open them Read-Only to look at the data only or copy them to my workstation if I want to edit them. Lost connections - Constantly having to re-enter passwords for network shares. I also have a couple of workstations out on our frame-relay WAN (which is anchored in the PRI)... These workstations can't copy large files from the server. After getting about a third of the way through, they get notification that the connection has been reset. This appears to only happen between PRI/PSN. I can copy files between two boxes on the PSN all day long and nothing appears to happen. Thank goodness, about the only service that appears to be unaffected is Terminal Server. But because of these problems, I've been seriously considering just eliminating the PRI on our network, unless maybe, somebody has some suggestions at things I can do to clear this up?
