Name resolution issues after adding new nic

[beesnbuzz]

I disabled the nic in my Win2K server and replaced it with a newer GigE

network card. This server takes care of DNS, DHCP, AD. I assigned the

same IP values from the old nic to the new nic once it was installed
and the original nic was disabled. What's happening now is machines
that are not members of the domain (roughly 10-30 of various
workgroups) cannot ping the server by Name only. They are resolving
the server name to a random IP address that is not at all related to
the IP scheme we are using. They can ping the server by its actual IP
address and can release and renew their IP addresses through the server

with no problem. The name resolution problem didn't occur until I
installed the new nic. This is affecting their access to share's,
etc... I tried flushing the DNS on the workstations but still have the
same issue. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in
advance!!!

registry still contains the pointers for the disabled nic concerning tcp/ip.
reenable the disabled nic. UNINSTALL tcp/ip then disable the nic.

Okay. Thanks for the info. I enabled the nic but when I select TCP/IP
the Uninstall option greys out. I can uninstall File and Printer
sharing and Client for MS Networks, but not TCP/IP. I went ahead and
unchecked all three of them though, saved it, and disabled the old nic
again. Does that sound like the correct process? Do I need to stop
and restart anything after? Thanks again!!
