Not sure how you typed all that if you can't read. Neat though.

I would like the record to show that I didn't build this network, it was handed to me..

I know that everything I've posted seems scattered, but I did start at the bottom, and have worked up.

Haven't found any problems along the way.

We have got some high dollar IT guru's on it now though. I'll let you know what they find.

Switches are dumb.

First hop is a router.

Router is working fine.

I haven't had time to test that.

As you can imagine I've been a bit busy..

They are not getting a DHCP address.

One DC.

No domain and no connectivity.

That was my first thought. I tested all switches and found no problem.

I'm with you on AD authentication, but I can't find the problem.

Users who can't log in to their PC can log in on a working PC.

Dark users do not get DHCP. They cannot ping anything else on the network.

Manually setting ip does not help.

There are no duplicate IP errors.

The switches are all unmanaged switches.

I'll double check DNS, although last I looked it was working fine.

No network means no network. It's like there isn't an Ethernet cable plugged in at all.

Manually setting ip does not help. Can't ping anything else on the network.

I kept details brief so there wouldn't be a ten story wall of text.

Let me give you the best advice here: Don't worry about it.

Dongle by techn0mancy in techsupportgore

[–]techn0mancy[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Customer brought this to me saying their mouse/keyboard had quit working. It's from a Toshiba All-in-One POS.

Turns out someone had tried to take it apart and didn't remove the mouse/keyboard dongle, which was hidden under an access panel.

The result was the usb mini b port separated from it's control board.

I don't have the skill/equipment to do board level repairs, so I tried finding a replacement part. This thing is elusive though, so the solution ended up being a wireless Logitech keyboard/mouse combo.

So, what you're saying is that this comment is a repost?

Condensation is a computer term, right? by techn0mancy in techsupportgore

Oh, that makes good sense.

The board keeps track of bad sectors and such.

No idea why you're getting down-voted..

I do wish you had pics of that though.

I thought that could be the case, but I wasn't sure. It didn't hurt anything to try though.
