DHCP not assigning IP Addresses

A

agsupps

I have SBS 2000 and have both DHCP and DNS properly
configured to my server IP address and both services are
running. I have just set all of this up and have tried to
connect a laptop to the server. If I use Dynamic IP
addressing, the laptop does not log on to the network and
the logon script does not run (I also can't ping the
server). If I use a static IP address it works fine, the
logon script runs and the laptop can see (and ping) the
server.

Any ideas on what I have done wrong here?

Thanks

Andy-

Is your DHCP server handing out the proper subnet, gateway, and DNS? When
you do ipconfig /all after using DHCP, does the info you get match what you
get when you use manual settings?

reply from agsupp

When dynamically assigning the IP address, there is no default gateway shown in ipconfig /all. There is in the ipconfig /all view of the static IP address fields Is this where the problem lies, and how can I force DHCP to set it on the laptop

Set your DHCP scope to include the internal IP address of the Internet
router as the default gateway and ipconfig /renew to see if you get the
info.
Not sure what you mean by 'static IP address fields' ...is this computer set
to use DHCP?

Do you have options 003, 006 and 015 in DHCP-server, Scope options? How many
nics in the server?

Thanks, I have now added these options to my scope, but I still can't auto-assign IP addresses. I am trying to use this on a Compaq Armada 300 laptop machine, and am not sure whether this could be causing the problem. This is the only machine on the network at present.

Interestingly, I can not get the server to see my Netgear PS110 Print Server through TCP/IP, though it appears in the Print Server admin program window with the NETBEUI protocol enabled (it disappears when you disable the NETBEUI protocol). Could all of this point to some sort of problem with TCP/IP? My DHCP server is running, I have a scope set up for IP addresses 192.168.1.0 to 192.168.1.255. There are exclusions for my broadband router DHCP addresses (192.168.1.1 - 192.168.1.9 and also my server IP address. I did disable the firewall to see if this was causing the problem, but this made no difference. I really don't know how to proceed.

Do you have 2 nics in the server? It is recommended.
Did you restart the DHCP-server after adding those options? Did you rerun
the ICW-wizard?
Can you post the ipconfig/all from the server?

Configuration of your external nic is not right.
First of all, it should not be DHCP enabled, it should have a static IP.
Second, your external nic should be in a different IP-range, something like
10.0.0.x for example.
DNS on the external nic should point to your server-IP, ie. 192.168.1.20.
IP and Gateway on your external nic can never be the same.

Many, many thanks for all your help. This is all now working. The IP address on my external NIC has now been set to static, although as it is connected to a 4 port broadband router, I have set it to 192.168.1 2. I have configured a new scope with a range in 192.168.2.1- 254. I changed my DNS and DHCP settings and this has resolved all of the problems!

Thanks again - you're a star!

Hi Andy,

You shouldn't need to define that scope, so delete it. Unless you mean that
you've created a new internal scope??? Than make sure that it is the only
scope and check the Scope options too.
Make sure that the external IP-range is not in the LAT of ISA.
You did rerun the ICW-wizard, right?

Hi Marina

The new scope is definitely internal, and I have amended my LAT Address table to include only 192.168.1.1 - 192.168.1.255. I have also re-run the ICW and everything is working fine.

Thanks again

Hi Andrew,

If 192.168.2.x is your internal IP-range, that should be in the LAT. Was
that a typo?

This is the only machine on the network at present.
Interestingly, I can not get the server to see my Netgear PS110 Print
Server through TCP/IP, though it appears in the Print Server
admin
program
window with the NETBEUI protocol enabled (it disappears when
you
disable the
NETBEUI protocol). Could all of this point to some sort of
problem
with
TCP/IP? My DHCP server is running, I have a scope set up for
IP
addresses
192.168.1.0 to 192.168.1.255. There are exclusions for my
broadband
router
DHCP addresses (192.168.1.1 - 192.168.1.9 and also my server
IP
address. I
did disable the firewall to see if this was causing the
problem, but
this
made no difference. I really don't know how to proceed.

Check my other post. Do you have options 003, 006 and 015 in
DHCP-server,
Scope options?

Using DHCP the default gateway IP address is not shown in
ipconfig
/all. This appears to be the only difference.

Andy-
Is your DHCP server handing out the proper subnet, gateway,
and DNS?
When
you do ipconfig /all after using DHCP, does the info you get
match
what you
get when you use manual settings?
"(e-mail address removed)"
message I have SBS 2000 and have both DHCP and DNS properly
configured to my server IP address and both services are
running. I have just set all of this up and have tried to
connect a laptop to the server. If I use Dynamic IP
addressing, the laptop does not log on to the network and
the logon script does not run (I also can't ping the
server). If I use a static IP address it works fine, the
logon script runs and the laptop can see (and ping) the
server.
Any ideas on what I have done wrong here?
Thanks
