DHCP server install issue
http://utilis-it.com/dhcp.gif
Anyone come across this before? Tried Googling without any real success. Driving me mad as nothing is appearing in the event viewer to suggest what is causing this.
This is a W2k domain server, it is the sole server in the domain, all updates applied. I have been receiving this message every time I attempt to install DHCP right from the start after a fresh install.
TIA,

DHCP error in W2K Server,
Hi,
I've seen this before. I can't remember exactly BUT try the following:
Win2K, try setting up a separate PC with Win2K server without any updates and SP's. during install, choose to install DHCP service when prompted for optional network components. This will give you a better idea of what could be wrong on your current server.
I suspect it could be some other application that you have installed like MS SQL2000 or one of MS's beta software packages.
To also troubleshoot the problem, go throught: nbtstat and ipconfig (good old dos window still helps!).
If you don't try it clean, you will also have difficulties with Exchange and ISA in the future.
