Re:No leases from DHCP server

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry



WS CAN ping gateway
WS CAN ping ISP's DNS
CS CANNOT ping server at all
WS have sp2 and firewall enabled
Sserver CAN ping WS
DNS log shows nothing but stopping and starting service

I'm not incredibly well versed in DNC and DHCP, so recreating a scope is a
bit intimidating. Then again, not sure things can get much worse. I have 3
hours before work starts to get this done. Please keep it coming.
