Problems with new Win2K Ad ServerConfiguration:
I am adding a Windows 2K Advanced Server to a Windows 2000 domain. I gave the server a static IP address. However, it's not holding the IP address. DHCP is assigning it a different address which I'm not sure why this is happening. It works for awhile but after an hour or so, it stops working because I think there is an IP conflict. If I restart the server, it works again for a short while but then stops. Does anyone have an idea?
Things I've tried:
--Uninstalling and reinstalling network card driver.
--Assigning the static IP address logged on locally.
--Tried different IP addresses that are in my exclusion range.
--Verified my subnet mask to be correct.
--Threw the server on the ground twice as hard as I could.
Please help if you can!

Two options with dhcp.
"reserve" the address. You do this my associating the nic cards mac address with a particular ip address. This is a way of "hard coding" dhcp to only assign that address to that device.
put a static ip address on the server and REMOVE that address from the dhcp ip pool

I've done the second suggestion, and it didn't work. I haven't tried reserving yet because I have not done this with any other servers or machines. I wanted to try and figure it out without reserving the IP.
Any other suggestions.
Thanks.

Reserving the IP address did not work either.
Other suggestions????
