I have verified that that router is not running DHCP. When I have the DHCP on the server enabled and with a scope activated, no DHCP services are answering on the lan for the workstations. So its reasonable to assume that there are no renegade DHCP services out there fouling up the server. They end up with one of the autoassigned IP's from windows built in service in the 169 range.
I now have the router offering DHCP so the workstations can function, but the server still isn't doing its job when configured to do so. I haven't been able to go back to the machine yet to try clearing the DCHP folder, will try that next.
