At a DHCP client start by re-booting it. Logon then check the IP config. Open a command window and type ipconfig /all if you are using win2K or XP. Verify that your DNS server is pointing to your iSeries DNS Server. On your PC, from a command window, type nslookup. It should show your default server as your iSeries. Type something like ibm.com and see what you come up with. I received 6 addresses. If this works, then everything is setup correctly. If you have two DHCP servers running, your results will be unpredictable. You will need some LAN scanner to find the rouge DHCP server.
