I've had a Win2k3 server running w/o problems for over a year. Now all of a sudden it gives me a lot of problems:
I can't access anything on inet, neither my firewall @ 192.168.0.1. I can ping my workstation (@ ..0.4) but not my fw. I can access my workstation via NetBIOS but not thru TCPIP. Here's a few scenarios to describe it better:
@workstation:
Ping to server at 192.168.0.2 - OK
Ping to firewall at 192.168.0.1 - OK
I can access internet from here.@server:
Ping to workstation at 192.168.0.4 - OK
Ping to firewall at 192.168.0.1 - FAILS
I can't access internet from here. If I try to access a network share on my workstation thru \\workstation it works fine, but if i try \\192.168.04 it won't work.Any ideas what this could be? The wierd thing is that it happened before and then went away.
ADSL firewall & router @ 192.168.0.1 Dlink Di-624+ acts as gateway to inet.
Server roles are fileserver, DNS server and Exchange server.All help appreciated.

Install the support tools for 2003 and run the following...
netdiag /test:winsock
Does it show any failures?

All the signs that your firewall router died.
If you connect a laptop/pc directly to the modem [disconnect the router] does internet work?If so replace the firewall router.
Golly gee wilerkers everyone. Learn to Internet Search

I can ping and access the firewall from my workstations. But not from the server. I'm going to try the netdiagnostics.. If I find it :o

The problem WAS related to the firewall. After disabling wlan and closed some open portrages, the box is running fine again.
