Anyone seen this event id?
It says "The DNS server encountered an invalid DNS update message from
192.168.1.52. The packet was rejected."

The Microsoft resolution says that it should be coming from a win 95 or 98
pc that has a name with an invalid character, but this is a Windows 2000
server.

Any idea's????

Does that server have an underscore in its hostname?
 
192.168.1.52 is very likely your DHCP server. It's trying to register a
record for a computer that has invalid characters in its name. If this is
the case, I'd suggest you just ignore the error.

or, perhaps better, rename the offending machine
 
The server is the machine with that IP 192.168.1.52 ?
It is name of machine at that IP which may be at issue.
