Hello Bobson,

The DHCP client service IS important to update DNS records, even when using fixed ip addresses. What error message do you get when you try to start it?

Best regards

Hi everyone,

Thank you for your help in advaced.

I have some servers with static IP assigned and have been running fine
until the moment they got the "conficker" infected. Now the servers
are clean, and they can go to "mcafee.com" and "microsoft.com". But
they could not start the DHCP client service. I know it is not
important at this point as the servers are running on static IP. But I
just want to look into the solution.

Thank you very much for your help.

Bobson
