Hi There,

Had a network card go on a secondary dns server running both wins and dns,
the problem is after replacing the nic card I cant get server manager to see
the backup contoller, its greayed out in the list. If I clear all the wins
entires I cant start to brows the network neighborhood again , but that is
only temporary. After a shout while I loose the brows to feature in the
networkneighborhood . There has got to be a simpler was to replace a nic
card without having this kind of  problem. Any suggestions to get this thing
back in the network. The backup server also wants to become the master and
tries to knock off the primary controler on a reboot.

Thanks for any help

Make sure it's a current driver for the new NIC and reapply the latest
service pack after updating the driver.  Normally it eally is just
swapping the NIC, as long as you kept IP addressing the same.
