DHCP Service Shutting Down

Zones: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), Windows 2000 Server, Microsoft Operating Systems

Tags: dhcp, event, server, shutting

We have a Windows 2000 Server running DHCP. Periodically the DHCP service will just stop. No events (as far as I can telll) are listed in the event logs indicating what the error might be. The service is simply restarted and it works fine again for about a week.

I've checked the available address pool and there seems to be enough available addresses to accomodate all of the ip address requests.

Any other ideas? Thanks in advance.

The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.
