David's data is good, but perhaps the explanation of "why" included in the tech data 
is wanting.

Is it "caused" by a client error induced by a portable device?  Perhaps if it was a 
one-off situation, the probability of that would be high, and it may be the case in 
your situation.  However, in the past few years in my experience, most DHCP errors of 
this type are introduced by someone having connected a SOHO router or combination 
router/WiFi access pointwith either or both NAT and its DHCP service enabled.  Go 
looking for an access point installed by a user (or heaven forbid, the manager in 
charge of either your networking or R&D organization - oh yes, that happens).

Subject: DHCP won't renew lease
Importance: High


I am currently having an issue with one of the subnets on our DHCP servers
and I could use your help. On one of the subnets DHCP won't renew the
leasing of IP address to any of the clients.  The clients who already have
IP address lease to them are working normally but whichever one got rebooted
could not get the new or same IP address.  In the event viewer I see an
event ID 1011 with the following warning "The DHCP Server issued a NACK to
the client (client's hardware address) for the address (IP address) request.
Has anyone seen this before?  This server is running NT 4.0 Server SP 6a.
Thanks much in advance for any help.
