I am setting up a two servers with windows server 2003. One for domain
controller and one for sub-domain controller (backup) both with Active
Directory and DNS. The problem is I cannot ping them by connecting to
a switch with Cat-5 cable. However, I can ping them by using a
crossover cable and the switch works once the servers are connected by
the crossover.
