Re: DHCPServer keeps stopping

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

hi

This can occur if the BOOTP relay agent forwards the DHCP Offer frame
from the DHCP
server to the broadcast address (255.255.255.255) instead of forwarding
the Offer
frame directly to the client computer that requested the IP address.
The DHCP
server sees this traffic and interprets it as another DHCP server on
the same
network, which causes the DhcpServer service to fail

check this http://support.microsoft.com/?id=120932

Configure the BOOTP relay agent to forward the Offer frame directly to
the
requesting DHCP client instead of to the broadcast address

My SBS 2003 DHCP server keeps stoping 1 hour after I start it with error
1053, which means that it has detected another "Rogue" DHCP server. The
issue is that the IP address that is reported for the other DHCP server is
the address of my SBS server itself.

Here is the entry from the DHCP server log:

62,06/08/06,19:47:44,Another server was found,192.168.10.6,,,
01,06/08/06,19:47:44,Stopped,,,,

I have SBS 2003 with a single NIC. The server address is 192.168.10.6. The
network is attached to the Internet via a DSL router (192.168.10.1) that has
its DHCP server disbaled (I checked). There is no other DHCP server on the
network, because after the SBS DHCP server stops clients get no response to
their DHCP requests.

Is the SBS DHCP server somehow detecting itself and shutting down because of
that? Or could there be some other DHCP server running on the SBS server
itself?

I saw some old posts about RRAS having a second DHCP server in it, but I
have that service disabled. I looked through all of the running services and
didn't anything that looked likely to be a problem.

The strangest thing is that everything worked fine for the last 6 months and
then two days ago it stopped working. I don't believe any new hardware or
software was installed at this time, but I can't be positive.

How can I configure the SBS DHCP server to ignore the fact that it detects
another DHCP server and keep running anyway?

Or how I can I find out why the SBS server is detecting itself as a Rogue
DHCP server?

Thanks!
