I have 3 routers connected due to the different locations of my computers. 1 of those being from my ISP. I have 2 servers on these networks 2 laptops, and two desktops.
Anyway for some reason, one of my servers (Windows 2000) and my desktop (Windows 7) both on the same router which is just being used as a switch, DHCP disabled have a communication issue. When they both traceroute, they go external of my network through the isp just to come back and find one another.
I don't have this problem with any other machine. I have a laptop and a server (Windows 2003) on my other router which has DHCP enabled. When i traceroute to either one of the other machines I get a direct 1 HOP.
My only issue is when these to machines attempt to connect to one another. This also causes other issues like 'Trusts'.
What could be the problem?
