Re: Vista Won't Get IP Address via DHCP from W2K Server

Sorry that I didn't give many details. One subnet -- a simple peer-to-peer
LAN. I'd already unbound IPv6, and the server worked fine for all other
machines and OS's (from '95 to XP Pro). There's nothing wrong with the
wiring (machines get moved here all the time).

I got it to work by removing the scope on the server and then recreating it.
For some reason, Win2K Server seemed to be ignoring the Vista machine.

If it happens again, I'll publish the network monitor capture here.
