Hello Wouter,

Thank you for posting here. Let's also thank David for the input.

According to your description, I understand that you get many lease
requirements in the DHCP console and all from xxx.yyy.local. If I have
misunderstood the problem, please don't hesitate to let me know.

Based on my research, this is mostly cause by you enable multiple VPN
dial-in connections on RRAS. Every VPN dial-in connection will query DHCP
to get IP address beforehand. I suggest we try the following steps to see
if we can resolve this issue:

1. Check the VPN miniport number in RRAS:

a. Click Start -> Administrative Tools -> Routing and Remote Access
b. Extend SBSname (local) -> Ports, right click Ports, select properties
c. Do you find the L2TP or PPTP has big Number of Ports? If yes, please
double click it, input a small number in the Maximum ports box. Click OK
twice
d. Restart the SBS to take effect.

2. If the issue persists, please perform the following steps to completely
reconfigure the RRAS:

1) Disable RRAS

a. Schedule a network down time.

b. Please open Routing and Remote Access console on SBS thru run command
"rrasmgmt.msc"

c. Right click the SBSname (local), select Disable Routing and Remote
Access console

2) Run CEICW on SBS

You have to rerun the CEICW to make sure your SBS 2003 server have right
network configuration. Go through the follow KB and Rerun CEICW again
carefully.

3) Run Remote Access wizard

a. On the Small Business Server 2003-based server, click To Do List in the
left pane of the Server Management console.

b. Under Network Tasks, click Configure Remote Access.

c. Click Next, click Enable Remote Access, click to select the VPN Access
check box, and then click Next.

d. Type the fully qualified public domain name (your public DNS name) of
your server, click Next, and then click Finish.

e. When the wizard is completed, click Close.

Then, check the DHCP.

If we cannot resolve the issue after we perform the above steps, please
help me collect some information for further investigation:

1. Please capture screenshots on the DHCP window and send the pictures to
me at v-terliu@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

2. Gather MPS network report on SBS:

a. Download MPSrepot_network from
http://download.microsoft.com/download/b/b/1/bb139fcb-4aac-4fe5-a579-30b0bd9
15706/MPSRPT_NETWORK.EXE

b. Run MPSRPT_NETWORK.exe.

c. The tool will automatically collect the information. This procedure
will
take 10~15 minutes.

d. Open Windows Explorer, navigate to the folder:
%SystemRoot%\MPSReports\Network\Reports\Cab\

e. Send the .cab file directly to me at v-terliu@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

I hope these steps will give you some help.

Thanks and have a nice day!

Best regards,

Terence Liu(MSFT)
