We have four here and only one isn't working. When I try to connect it says that the server is not connected. Everything looks connect to us (we're at work). We pulled up an Advanced System Information Error Log and it says the following: The server could not bind to the transport \Device\NwInkIpx because another computer on the network has the same name. The server could not start. Please help.
This is the first time this has happened since we got the computers last year. How did the names duplicate? We checked them all and it says the are all different. And if we change the name, what do we change it to? Right now it's just a bunch of numbers.One computer won%26039;t connect to the internet.?
Do you have 2 PC's with the same name? Right click on My Computer and select Properties. Then go to computer name. Make sure each PC has its own unique name and IP address ( don't know if your using DHCP or not).
I would unjoin the PC from the domain and add it back and see if that helps.One computer won%26039;t connect to the internet.?
You can name the computer whatever you want to. If it says this, then it sounds like another computer on your network somehow has the same IP Address as another one, which is why it's not working. Try making sure the computer doesn't have a static IP address, and if it does then change it to DHCP, so it will get a new address. I hope this helps.One computer won%26039;t connect to the internet.?
The answer, like you said is in the error. You can change the name of the pc to anything you want. If it is just a number and the name is not important to you you can just add another number to the end of the existing number or you can give it a name like %26quot;rosie%26quot;
Right clik %26quot;my computer%26quot; and select properties. Select %26quot;Computer%26quot; and click change...follow the steps.
