RE: DHCP Problems

Hi Neil,

Yes I had the same problem, but I had to IPL on the weekend and that seemed
to fix the problem.

I didn't look any further into it.

Subject: DHCP Problems


Anyone experiencing problems with the DHCP server on the 400 ?

We're running V4R5.  My laptop is set to obtain IP address via DHCP, and
every night when I take it home it gets an IP address from the @home
network (cable modem) and every morning it gets an address from the 400 on
our office LAN.  That was every morning for the last year, until today !
The laptop (Win98 2nd edition) insists it's unable to connect to the DHCP
server.  I released the DHCP lease on another PC in the office and tried
to renew it and it too had the same problem.  Had to hardcode an IP
address, Gateway & DNS servers for now.

400 is at V4R5 with cum package C1198450 plus the latest PTF I could find
for DHCP (SF65821).
