Our network really sucks, and hasn't been thought out very well at all. 3 out of our 4 servers are hideously bogged down with software they shouldn't have, and software that ought to have a dedicated server (but they'd never agree to that). Yet amazingly, it works pretty well all the time. The last major problem was a switch problem resulting in loss of connectivity for all users. That took about 30 minutes sort, mainly because we couldn't find out what the problem was. We still don't know what it was.
