Hi everybody, i have got 2 questions, i hope that i will get help here as every time. the first problem is that at one of the servers(win 2003 server, for cash registers system) the network printers go offline. or it says access denied. the problem is that the same printers work properly over the TS. if i restart the server, it works for a while but after a few hours, the same story is repeated. also strange that opening Printers and Faxes takes for ever. opening windows explorer generally takes forever. i downloaded some explorer fix but still the same thing and i deleted spoolss.dll and spoolsv.exe but still no success. can anybody help me there? the second problem is also strange. i always used to create new users over the terminal server. now suddenly it doesn't work anymore. if i try to creat a user, i get an error message "the specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted." the sysvol is and can be seen, the netlogon too. still having this problem. i always have to creat the new user directly from the domain controller all of a sudden. and one more thing, if somebody try to log in from a fat client, it takes forever, although anybody loging in over the terminal and thin clients works perfectly. any help would be greatly apreciated. thanks in advance

All signs your MS dns server is not configured correctly. Workstation dns entry, does it point to the 2003 server running dns or the isp?

hi wandrer, thanks for the reply. all the clients get the ip/dns info etc. over dhcp so i actually do not usually configure anything on a client other then adding it to the domain.
