Hi,
Have a Windows 2003 R2 x64 file server that hosts two vmware virtual
servers (also w2k3). It has dual teamed Intel NICS. From the console of
the server most of the time connections to external ftp or web time
out. From either of the vm guests access is 100%. DNS seems OK since a
ping returns a correct IP address but ping/tracert times out. Any
suggestions how can I further troubleshoot what is happening?
Thanks
