If I'm reading the Microsoft instructions correctly, all you have to run
FRS is 2003 with SP1. Am I wrong, people? I am aware that DFS will
require R2...
FYI, none of the servers in question are running 2003R2.

I've seen errors like this on a server that either had a back NIC, bad drivers
or was connected to a bad port on a switch. The only way I was able to correct
it was to switch the primary IP address to another NIC in the server what was
connected but not configured. It was an interesting exercise

Is the box running R2? You need to upgrade to schema v31 (r2) if so.
If not I tend to think your DNS is busted.
Thanks,

The other thing that would probably be worthwhile is to do a sniffer trace

The problem with Broadcom NICs is not typically the hardware. The

In the situations we've had you could have the latest drivers to the

The only "fix" we found was Intel nics.

Sorry, just catching up here. In terms of updating the driver, if it's a MS

want to run Windows Update and see if there are any optional updates for
that NIC driver--if MS provided it originally they may have a Windows Update

I have come across an issue a couple of times where IE is customised in some

Ok. If this user has a roaming profile, you might try deleting any locally
cached copies of her profile and letting the roaming one download anew. That
might free things up. Outside of some profile issue, you could check the IE
