I have a vhd that I moved off of one server onto another. The virtual
machine boots up just fine and works as it should other than the
network. The computer will pull a DHCP address but will not do
anything else. It won't talk to the network after it gets its IP. Any
ideas?

What do you mean it "will pull a DHCP address but will not do anything
else?" What else are you expecting it to "do" that it is not doing? Which
network is providing DHCP? Which network(s) is the VM not communicating
with? How are your networks configured? What Virtualization platform are
you using? VS 2005, VPC, Hyper-V?

More information = better assistance here = higher chance of problem
resolution for you. :-)

Start with basic connectivity vertification procedures (i.e. - pinging IP
addresses) and then proceed through FQDN names, NetBIOS names, higher level
connectivity verifications (services, applications), etc.

Hope this s,
