Hi there. I have a 10 computer network attached to a cable internet connection. The internet connection is on Windows 2000 server running Active Directory, DNS, DHCP, and NAT (in Routing and Remote Access). I had setuped NAT using NIC connected to cable modem as public, other NIC as LAN. The Auto assigning IP using DHCP and Name resolution using DNS are also enabled. The problem I have is the I can access the Internet using the server, but not using any other local network computers running Win9x, or Win2000. The error message I'm recieving when trying to ping google.com is: C:\Temp>ping google.com Pinging google.com [216.239.35.100] with 32 bytes of data: Request time out. Request time out. Request time out. Request time out. Ping statistics for 216 239.35.100: Kackets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss),Approximate round trip time in milli-seconds: Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms C:\Temp> It seems that DNS and part of NAT are working correctly, but something is wrong there. Please help!

Can you see your server from the client computers in network places? Or can you ping the server from clients and vice versa? Also have you setup the clients as members of the domain? Jason
