Hi all,
Windows 2003 Server. Fairly new installation and I'm now installing
DHCP. However, during the install, I get: "This computer has at least
one dynamically assigned IP address". Wrong! I've got one NIC and it is
static:
Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
Description . . . . . . . . . . . : NVIDIA nForce Networking
Controller
Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-11-09-05-88-F6
DHCP Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : No
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.1.1.17
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 10.1.1.1
DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.1.1.17
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>
If I look at the hidden devices in device manager, I see:
5 x Wan Miniport
Direct Parallel
NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller [not hidden]
NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller - Packet Scheduler Miniport
Looking for DHCP-enabled adapters in the registry, I can't find any.
Now, the only thing that may be relavant is that I had DHCP installed
before installing RIS, but then I reinstalled DHCP, leaving RIS on.
Apart from that, I've got no ideas as the server's never had any DHCP
assigned adapter. It was given a static address during install. Clearly
I've done something as this is the first time I've seen this happen,
but the question is, what?...
Any ideas?
Cheers
