Running SBS 2003 -
All stations get their IP form DHCP on the server.
Suddenly some PC do not get an IP - If I give them a manual fixed IP all is working fine.
I have restarted the DHCP service, but still no distribution.
What could create the problem.
If the scope is set to give out 50 addresses and has given them out, then new devices won't be able to receive a DHCP address.
Please fire up DHCP Manager and check to see if the Scope is full and if it is, either change the scope to allow more IP Addresses to be allocated, being careful not to extend into a range of fixed IP Addresses or you will get IP conflicts.
