Ah yes, the old worn-out F5 trick ;-) > Would these broadcast issues/browsing failures explain all of the > problems that I described? I can't say for sure, but most of the problems you're experiencing are classic broadcast failures. Some of the more unusual ones (like the red X on the mapped network drive) I've never heard of, but if Windows can't find the name of the server I wouldn't be surprised if it assumed the server was offline and consequently displayed a red X...so I think if you get broadcasting fixed, it's quite likely to make almost all these issues go away.
