My production box has started to time out random connections from the app as well as when I try to connect via SSMS. Unfortunately, I'm in an environment where others have access to the server and changes can be made. When I try to connect with SSMS sometimes it works fine, sometimes it timesout, and sometimes it says it timesout but actually makes the connection. I've tested the NIC, seems fine. I did also see some errors stating login was from untrusted domain, but I've replicated the timeouts connecting to server with IP address and SQL authentication. As far as I know, no changes were made in SQL configuration and system has been running for years. Anyone come across anything like this or have any ideas of what to check? We are already talking about buiulding another Prod box and migrating, but 'd really like to know what the issue is here. Thanks.

If you don't see any bottlenecks on the server itself (PerfMon), then this issue is almost certainly due to the network. Run a network trace to see what's going on when it times out.
