DHCP IssueGrab this script:

and put it in a scheduled task on the ISA.
You'll want to time the recurrence for no more than 75% of the lease time.

  In setting up an ISA system for a branch office, the external interface 
  is on DHCP.  Sometimes, the DHCP service/driver can't get a proper 
  corporate IP number, so it reverts to 169.xxx.xxx.xxx.  Of course then the 
  ISA services choke, and no one on the internal network can get back to 
  the main office until the machine is rebooted - asking for an ipconfig 
/release /renew combo never lets it get past the router, but a reboot always 
fixes it.

  Is there a way to trap for that to make the machine forcibly reboot? 
  It's not like the ISA services don't start, so I can't make Win2K reboot 
  on their "error"; it's that they don't really have connectivity. 

  All help would be appreciated.  Thanks.
