After Win2k3 Server DHCP move to new Win2k3 Server it will not assign IP's to any clients.


i looked on net docs on moving , chose 1 moving our older 2k3 server (server a) newer server (server b).  both servers updated , running of latest service packs.  both machines domain controller in our domain also.

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/325473

finished instructions no errors, completed successfully.  (which have done 3 times previously, no go...)

i unable ip assigned machines on network.  if stop service on newly installed server b , restart server services go working fine.  have tried installing different server (server c) using same instructions , still no go...

is there simple may missing?  

thanks in advance!!!

in addition authorizing server, make sure dhcp server service bound correct nic.  if server has more 1 nic may bound incorrect one.  open dhcp admin console.  depending on version of adminpak/rsat running, different properties screen.  in case, need see nic bound service. 

if server authorized, on same subnet, , binding correct, there nothing else needs configured (other scopes).  if not resolve issue, plug laptop network, run packet capturing software can see traversing network. 

there 4 basic dhcp packets should see (dhcpdiscover, dhcpoffer, dhcprequest, , dhcpack/dhcpnack).
