Answer : NetBt Event Errors And NbtStat Conflict query

It appears that your NIC's IP Addresses are in the same subnet.  This is not a good idea, as it will create havoc and error messages galore...  I really cannot tell since you commented # out the addresses, but this is what I am assuming here...

Also, why are you running Public IP Addresses on your server?  (unless of course they are in some kind of DMZ)
