Server 2003 Internet connectivity

I just installed 2003 server and can't connect to the
internet. If I change my network settings to pull a DHCP
address everything is great. But if I go back to my static
IP address, with the correct gateway and DNS server
addresses I can't even get to the microsoft critical
update site

Any idea's?

Thanks
Mark

Hi Mark,

How are Internet Services provided? Via Proxy Server? NAT?
One sure way to get it running is to right click IE, go to
the properties pages > Connections tab. Select LAN
Settings and click to check Automatically detect settings.

Good luck!
