DHCP server issues NACK

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I have a problem with my Windows NT 4.0 server.

It started after i installed BDC on domain. First

the dhcp server gave on Active Leases window an BAD

ADDRESS on few IPs. Then when i tried to connect another

new PC on network and it failed. After hours of search

i found that the DHCP database seems to be locked or

something. It gives lease to PC that has been on network

before but it wont let me to change network names and

I cant connect new PCs. Everytime I try it give "The DHCP

server issued NACK to the client ( .....) for the address

(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) request". I also searched ms knowledge base

but the best thing they offered was to install latest

service pack (witch i already have).

PLEASE HELP ME!!!

The only 2 things I can think of at the moment would be:

 

1. Is it possible that there is a rogue DHCP server on the network?

 

2. Have you tried to dissolve that DHCP pool and create another? Or better yet, have you tried to install the DHCP service on another system?

 

Let me know.

I have 200MB free on NOS partition, could it be that

it doesnt have enough disk space?
