I ran a nmap and I could see the ports listed on the MS box. I rebooted the ms-box and It looks be this are fine so I am suspecting the ms-box doing something fishy, but I am getting nervous again as I got around 50 users at anytime in the day So I am curious if anyone else faced the same problem Thanx for ur suggestion and I would like to know if U want me to do anything else to look for?
