Win2k client can't get an IP-adress

   *** From dhcp-server -- To unsubscribe, see the end of this message. ***



Hi all,

I have a problem which appears sometimes in that newsgroup but I never saw 
the answer.
Maybe now a solution is found:

A Win2k-Client Notebook tries to get his IP-adress from the DHCP-Server 
(isc-dhcpd-V3.0pl2 ) but never get one. In the /var/log/messages I find the 
following entries:

here is my dhcpd.conf:

====================================================================
authoritative;

option domain-name           "foo.com";
option domain-name-servers   xxx.xxx.xxx.110, xxx.xxx.xxx.111;
option subnet-mask           255.255.255.0;
option routers               xxy.xxy.xxy.1;

max-lease-time               259200;   # 3 days

ddns-update-style            interim;
ddns-updates                 on;
ddns-rev-domainname          "in-addr.arpa.";

one-lease-per-client         on;

zone foo.com                 { primary xxx.xxx.xxx.110; }
zone xxy.xxy.xxy.in-addr.arpa. { primary xxx.xxx.xxx.110; }

subnet xxy.xxy.xxy.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
     range xxy.xxy.xxy.240 xxy.xxy.xxy.254;
     option broadcast-address xxy.xxy.xxy.255;
}

host xxx-mob.foo.com {
     hardware ethernet 00:90:96:1B:1B:A1;
     fixed-address xxy.xxy.xxy.134;
}
====================================================================

I try to give that Notebook a fixed IP-adress because if I don't, the notebook
took all the free IP-adresses from that dhcp range. Does anybody have an idea?

thanks

Stefan Huettmann
