Hi guys, if DHCP server failing to assign IP Address to the workstation, what could be the problem? any idea is greatly appreciated...
I tried IPCONFIG /RENEW on a workstation but it fails..
If i tried to manually configure the IP settings on TCP-IP workstation can connect to internet..
But if I set the TCP-IP settings to "Obtain Automatically IP Address" it fails...
OS:WIN2K3
This may be an issue with the Firewall.
Has the server run out of addresses?
How big is the scope?
@jbennet
i don't think it run out of addresses, because we got a few workstation only.. about 20 workstation only...
it started with one workstation suddenly cannot renew an ip ad..so what i did i manually set the settings at TCP-IP and able to work normally..
then one day all the workstation suddenly cannot go internet...
this could be an issue of a virus or what?
@sparkax
firewall issue on the server? i don't think so
Try restarting the DHCP service on the server?

the problem might not be your system, it might be as a result of improperly configured DHCP server, contact your network administrator
Try restarting the DHCP service on the server?
