Windows 2000 DHCP

[Guest]

I was wondering if anyone else has delt with this. I have created a windows
2000 unattended build I have a lot of laptops and traveling users that go to
lots of diffrent locations throughout our company. Each site has its own
subnet using the same dhcp server but if someone logs into one site and gets
his IP address then and he travels to another site it dose not update or
renew his address with that sits subnet. So his computer will stop
communicating an till I do a ipconfig /release and / renew. Is there a fix or
reg hack for somthing like this?

You might want to set the lease time for clients to a shorter time.
That way half way through the lease they try to renew.

That is a strange problem. Usually when the interface goes down it tries
to renew the lease.
