IP address is showing as invalid or 0.0.0.0. DHCP client
service is not started, and trying to start gives the
error 1068 and fails to start. Any ideas?
Please reply to e-mail as well as group.

Thanks.
 
Hi,

Check the properties of the DHCP client (in Control Panel\Services). What
components does your DHCP client service depend on? If you see that it
depends on 'SYMTDI', remove that redependency from the registry per these
steps:

1. Click "Start", and then click "Run".

2. In the "Open" box, type "regedit" (without the quotation marks), and
then click "OK".

3. Locate the following Registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\DHCP
DependOnService

4. Edit the value to remove SYMTDI from the dependency list.

5. Restart the computer.

Thanks,
