  1. I'm so glad I was sitting before I read this!! What kind of processor do you have? 2x2.8ghz ... intel? Amd? In my experience, 4gb just isn't enough for Server2008.. but, with that being said, Is it backing up before shutting down? Antivirus scan? take a picture of the the most recent System & Application logs.. just the page, not individual ones.. let's see what's going on when it shuts down!
  2. AFAIK, only one can be the DC, the second would have to be the SDC
  3. Wow.. this sounds like a big job! I bookmarked this page, I want to see how this project comes! For right now, I'd check out some pirate (GASP!) versions of unintended installs of other Windows operating systems.. I know there's a file somewhere that you can put the info you want.. but shouldn't Server be different, config-wise, everytime? Look into PEBart or even Hiren's Boot CD to check out how they do it..
  4. from xp machine: start>run>cmd ipconfig /flushdns log off, then log back on.. Is the XP machine set to Auto IP? ..ISA server could be blocking it... *Theory* - Server only.. no that wouldnt work.. hmm.. Try the above, see if that works. also from CMD, try to run nslookup mlcserver (and see if it can find it that way) Let us know what happens!! =)
