My Windows xp computer can't connect to the DHCP server correctly and thus can't connect to the internet. It is connected through an Ethernet cable to a wireless router. All other computers on the same network connect fine to the router, both wired and wireless.This all started after I left my computer alone for a few hours and came back with it not coming out of idle. After shutting it off and turning it back on, it would not connect to the DHCP server.It assigned me the autoconfig address 169.254.189.73 because it couldn't connect to the DHCP server. I even tried a static IP but even that wouldn't fix it. I have tried the same ethernet cable in another computer and it worked fine so I know that it is because of my computer.I have tried renewing and releasing the connection using ipconfig in the command prompt but that did nothing. The settings are all the same as the other computers running through the same router. I have tried shutting down all the other computers and reconnecting the trouble one but again still nothing.The last thing I'm not sure about is the network adapter driver. I have reinstalled it but I'm not sure if the driver is correct. I have an NVIDEA nforce 10/100 Mbps Ethernet adapter. I attempted to reinstall but I'm not sure I selected the correct generation when I downloaded the driver installer. My computer says nothing about the generation of the adapter so I just chose the newest generation. My adapter is integrated in the motherboard.
I have a machine with Windows Server 2003 running an Exchange Server in a office with 5 workstations attached. The server is being used for a basic outlook calendar across the various workstations, nothing major. Our current ISP provides us with a Static IP address. The party that installed and configured the server set it up to run the DHCP server on the server PC itself. As in, the machine running windows server is also running a software DHCP server for the entire network. THE SETUP: As of right now we have a wall port (internet access) with a cable running to a 8 port unmanaged netgear switch that has cables hooked up to the 5 workstations as well as the server itself. Pretty simple.THE QUESTION: How do I configure the ISP static settings on the DHCP Server portion of the Server PC? We may be getting a new ISP with a dynamic address OR a new static address. WHAT I'VE TRIED: I've tried configuring the IP address on the Server PC the way I would via the NIC adapter settings but it already has a internal IP address from the DHCP Server running on that PC so changing that was no good.

I guess what I'm basically looking for is a screen like this (I hope you're familiar with the configuration pages of Linksys Routers) url...
I have trouble with a Cisco 892 Router from my Internet service provider.
Last week we switched from a virtual Router to a hardware Router. But after plugging it in our LAN Switch, the Windows DHCP Server stopped leasing IP's. I got many BAD_ADDRESS with MAC like e1:80:10:ac, e2:80:10:ac, e3:80:10:ac, e4:80:10:ac, e5:80:10:ac, ea:80:10:ac, eb:80:10:ac, ec:80:10:ac and so on.
I do not have access to the Router config, so I can not dump the config to you. We have a flat LAN, single SUB-Net(172.16.0.0/16) and no VLAN, no Spanning Tree. A Keep it Simple, Stupid(KISS) System.
A tech guy from service provider, is telling us, the error is not there fault and my switch is not correctly configured. But this is ********. For years we had a another Cisco Router from the precursor ISP and for 2 years the virtual Router from our current ISP. No trouble with my DHCP. But after plugging the new Router in, my DHCP stopped working.On the 892 is no running DHCP, but something interferences with my Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 DHCP Server.
I've got my AnyConnect setup to get an IP from our Windows DHCP server just fine. It grabs the IP, mask, and DNS just fine. But I can't ping any of the lan devices or do any DNS lookups. I need it to work this way since we have a ton of site-to-site's with remote offices and getting them all to adjust their firewalls to allow another subnet is a nightmare.
I have split-tunneling enabled. I'm sure it's a nonat command that I'm missing, but not sure what.
Before connecting to VPN: Home user-------------------> ASA 5510 --------------> Office Lan 192.168.1.0/24 10.10.1.1/24
After they connect to AnyConnect Home user-------------------> ASA 5510 --------------> Office Lan 192.168.1.0/24 10.10.1.1/24 10.10.1.45/24
We have a 5508 controller authenticates with WPA2-enterprise to 3 possible AAA servers. Today I tried migrating our DHCP server from a Windows 2003 machine to Windows 2008 R2. Migration went smoothly and all wired clients could get IP's. Reservations intact, scopes intact, etc.. you name it. I though it was a great success.
Fast forward about an hour when people started coming into work for the day. Calls started coming in about their laptops not able to connect to the network. I double checked with a spare laptop in our IT department and also my iPhone. Same issue. Seems the only thing I changed today was the DHCP server (from 10.1.1.1 to 10.1.1.2).
After racking my head on it for awhile, I re-enabled the "old" dhcp server (10.1.1.1) and disabled it on the new (10.1.1.2). Instantly wireless clients were able to connect.
Am I missing some configuration step in the 5508 controller when moving DHCP servers? I do plan on running 2 DHCP servers (10.1.1.2 and 10.1.1.10) for redundancy once I get the primary one moved over and working correctly.
I want to decommision the older 2003 server. Its time to raise the domain functional level.
OLD Dell computer running Windows XP Professional. Just ran a clean install and installed new drivers yesterday. After installing Service Pack 2, I began getting limited connectivity errors. Tried ipconfig/release and ipconfig/renew, but received the DHCP error.
I have install the administration toolpack on Windows 7 and enabled remote connections on my server 2008 box, When i try and connect with my Windows 7 server manager it does not work.I see stuff on google about enabling a trustedhost with winrm but can't find a way to do this.
i have a problem suddenly cant connect through router anymore.. it said "DHCP server PPPoE not found" but the day before yesterday i can connect.. but if i connect without router (modem to PC/lappie) My router : Buffalo Airstation WHR-HP-G300N, i have tried several action like reset router into factory setting but couldnt solve my problem. i realize recently that DHCP thing cant find any IP address anymore.. is that my router problem/my ISP? when i try wired connection, i realize too.. My IP address, DNS become some what different than usual.
I can connect to the network but doesn't connect to the internet. I have tried a lot of ipconfig cmd's /renew said "unable to connect to dhcp server" and others didnt work all out of ideas.
After getting New Workstations, I wanted to connect that to the SERVER but Windows 7 could not log into domain of our server with Windows Server 2003. Besides following the proper process/steps. I am able to use the printer and internet shared through SERVER though.
I have a new computer with windows 7. Will be terminal for a server using xp.My computer detects the server but I do not succeed to access with username and password.
I have done the following:
Changed workgroup name to same as the rest of the terminals.Changed computer name to same as my previous computer in the network.Previous computer read only chosen username (+ password) when accessing.This new computer reads both computernamechosen username (+ password) when trying to access.
I suspect that username is not approved due to "double-name" ?
I am using a old notebook (2 years old) with windows server 2008 on it. I needed to remove al the drivers, because windows server 2008 isn't using the drivers of windows xp, and it wanted a clean installation.
Now the question and problem, is it possible to let my server wireless connect to my home network?
I am using for a server my old notebook: Acer Aspire 5738ZG 2GB RAM, Intel Pentium dual-core processor T4200 Nvidia GeForce G105M 512MB (doesn't matter) Atheros AR5B91 Wireless Network Adapter
I already installed the driver for the Wireless network adapter. Windows can't find any networks, when i try to connect.
Have nearly new desktop running Windows 7 and cannot connect to Internet (BT broadband in wireless mode). Error message says 'cannot connect to proxy server'.
I have windows vista and my modem is connected to a router it was working fine than all of a sudden I get a connection than I lose connection right after.
All the pc's can't connect to my DNS server some a few minutes and then it gets back online, well windows says it can't connect to the primary DNS server.I have a router in between (a sitecom DC202-v5) and the router says it's gateway in unreachable. So what could be the problem for this? Because it's really annoying when playing online games.
I planned for my customer to replace his old LMS 4.0.1 server under Windows 2003 by a new server under Windows 2008 R2.Customer wants also to set a new LMS name and IP address for the new server under Windows 2008 R2 and keep both servers on the network.I'm wondering what could be the best procedure to do that migration.Can I used backup / restore procedure in that case ?If yes, what file must I modify to adapt the new LMS configuration to new hostname and IP Address ?
I am trying to set up to watch a live webcast and get the the following essage,"Windows Media Player cannot connect to the server. The server name might not be correct, the server might not be available, or your proxy settings might not be correct." I have tried to verify proxy server settings and it still gives me the message.
I build a local DNS for namming my local network on windows server 2008 , but due to setup local DNS ,when I want to connect to internet from my pc , I can't do it . because my DNS set with a local IP such as 192.168.1.10. What can I do that have an Internal DNS and can use internet with that too.
If I have two servers, one running Windows Server 2003, and one running Ubuntu 10, what would be the best way to 'map' one's drive to another? Either way is fine. They are each in a different state, and each have an external IP. I just need to do some processing on the Ubuntu server, then write the file either to its own drive, and have the web server (Windows) read it, or, have it write to the Windows HDD, and have Windows read it.
I am able to obtain IP addresses through the DHCP server for my clients and I am able to browse internet on the server 2k8.Server 2008 - Share Internet through DHCP server
i've been using a VPN to connect to my home network from elsewhere for a few months. It's set up as follows:
PPTP Maximum Strength Encryption EAP-MSCHAP-v2 Authentication
Now I find out that MSCHAPv2 authentication has been broken and is no longer considered secure (even by Microsoft), so I want to change the protocol I'm using to make it secure.
However, I've spent 3 hours now researching this and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to use a better protocol on my Windows Server 2012 home server. I've tried setting up PEAP authentication (still PPTP) a la Microsoft's recommendation document, but it requires a certificate. I've created a self-signed certificate but it seems I can't issue certificates (via this method) without being a member of a domain, so I'm stuck. I can't even get started with L2TP since I can't find the option for it.
My question is this: Is there a way to setup a secure VPN server using Windows Server 2012 without a domain? If so, how do I do this?
anyways here is my concern, we have a DHCP server in our company (HOTEL) and the Computer wont turn on, the computer is Compact Proliant Intel Inside Pentium Pro Processor OS Windows Server 2003, this Computer is so old. they been using this for 12 yrs and they didn't upgrade... now its dead.
since this Computer wont turn on, all of the computers cannot access in the internet, so for the meantime this is what I did... from the modem to router, I configure the router as a STATIC IP and I enter the IP address provided by our Internet Service Provider after that all of the computers form the hotel have internet connection.
now I'm planning to build a new PC and set up a DHCP server but I don't know how and where to start
I've been reading that the Windows Server Backup that is included with Server 08 R2 is pretty good. Is spending $400 on a third party utility worth it?
I'm asking because we're purchasing a new server soon and I want to know if the included backup is going to be good enough. Will be backing up server state as well as data to tape and possibly an off site server (server 2003) if I get my way.
setting up a DHCP server on a Cisco Layer 3 Switch. How would I set the pool up to issue the lowest available IP address all the time. At the moment it counts up even if a lease has expired.
