no, but I can say that I run into some of the same problems with the =
Win98 clients.  I only have one or two since we are mostly thin here but =
I have seen it happen.

:)  That's not so much of an option here, although I'd like it to be. =20

Anyone fixed the Win2k DHCP service?

Thanks,

We had trouble with our Win2K DHCP server not giving out IP addresses =
(there
were plenty available, including some machines that had valid leases but
couldn't get the IP address)  - again only to certain machines (these =
were
Win2K Pro or Linux desktops).  You could do IPCONFIG /RELEASE then =
IPCONFIG
/RENEW to sort the issue but you had to log on to the client first !
SO ....
We removed DHCP from the W2K box and installed a Linux DHCP server based =
on
Redhat 7.2  - Never had ANY problems with that one ! ! !

We don't see this in all of our windows 98 clients, and all the machines =

We did not have this problem when we were running on the Windows NT 4.0 =

service. Anyone see something like this?=20
