New SBS 2003 R2 server does not respond to ping
Posted by PJ on March 27th, 2008


I have just added a new SBS 2003 premium server to my exisiting 2003 server
and have assigned the new server the DC role.

Eveything seemed to be ok apart from GPO that doesn't work the old server
and the clients are all expecting it to come from the old DC, so I ran dcdiag
and it reported that the new SBS DC does not respond to ping and gave Win32
error 11010. I have checked and I cannot ping from the command line on any
client.

Everything else works fine on the new DC all help appreciated.

Regards

PJ

Hello pj,

Did you follow this way during installation? Also is the firewall enabled
on SBS?

Meinolf,

I followed the instructions from the Microsoft Website on how to make the
SBS server the DC.

It all seemed to work OK as I left the DHCP (with the new DC info(DNS, WINS
etc)) on the old 2003 server and moved the DNS to the new DC and they talk to
each other fine.
