Small LAN Hosed 'No network provider accepted the given netw |
|
|
NETWORK: 1 Domain Controller - Windows Server 2003 sp1 standard and 4
WindowsXP sp2 (firewall turned off) clients and all are setup to
automatically update from Windows Update fully patched. This small
production LAN has been working just fine for over 1 year.
PROBLEM: on 11/6/5, SUDDENLY without any major change/cause; now when you
try to access a network path (FQDN) "start" "run"
"\\machine_name\share_name", and get error message “No network provider
accepted the given network path.” But when you open the Command Console
(“start“-“run“-“cmd“), you can ping that machine successfully by using the
FQDN. Network shares and browsing across the LAN is inaccessible!
TROUBLESHOOTING DONE: I verified DNS is operational along with DCDIAG
/test:dns, check workstation, netlogon, workstation & other pertinent
services are running and ran system file checker “sfc /scannow” utility. I
removed one workstation from the domain then tried to re-add only to get
error message 'domain controller can not be contacted' even though I can ping
it by IP address.
I search Google.com & support.microsoft.com but have not found anything to
resolve this sudden and dumbfounding problem. Any & All ideas, input and
solutions is GREATLY appreciated.
Any IT genius out there who leads me to solving this problem and saving me
from having to rebuild my W2K3 gets lunch on me!
