If i upgrade to win2003 enterprise server sp2 from sp1 the Edgeport/8 ports are no longer detected properly. They will either, all appear, some will appear, they have Exclamation points next to them, but in all cases do not work.
When i run the edgeport.exe rather than listing 1 Edgeport with 8 ports, it will list 4 edgeports each with 2 ports. The names of these Edgeports will be garbage characters.
This is all reproducible as when i remove SP2 they appear as expected.
The issue reported with Enterprise edition is still up in the air. No problems with Standard edition (even with SP2). Which edition is your 2003 system running?
