    One of my clients
    got bought out and they wanted me to change the IP's. So I changed the
    modem/router from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.10.1 then I changed the server, all
    workstations and the printers to 192.168.10.xxx from 192.168.0.xxx. Everything seemed
    fine but only 1 workstation was very slow. So I ran some hardware diags on it
    and then left for the day. The next day I got a message that the one slow workstation
    is fine now but other ones are slow and getting errors or cant connect to the
    program they use that there data is on the server. I called them today and now
    most of the workstations are working fine.<o:p></o:p>

    Can someone please point me in the right direction to fix this or what i did wrong?<o:p></o:p>

    Thanks,<o:p></o:p>

    Yes it is a domain, no wins, what do you mean by legacy hosts file?

    Create record in the local host file should speed up the process.

    When the network address range was changed,  have all the DNS updated server IP address been updated on the clients. And the have all "A" Records for the clients been updated in DNS.

    • When a workstation is having problems, can you connect via IP address. 
    • Can you ping via Hostname and IP 
    • What does nslookup resolve the application server to when the workstation is having problems

    it's only one workstation right?

    have you tried going to an elevated command prompt and type:

    ipconfig /flushdns

    ipconfig /renew

    ipconfig /all and check whether it has the correct IP?

    it could be also that the workstation has a fixed IP (with the previous settings) so it has to be changed manually.

    Every second counts..make use of it.

    as you have changed all your Ip subnet  After doing this you will have to point your workstation to the new dns server ip address.
