you could always set a dhcp reservation until you figure it out.

hi
we have a remote server on a ups after 10 mins of ups power the server
is set to do a clean shut down
Users know to check the machine and power it back on
PROBLEM
the machine has a network card with fixed ip address for some reason the
machine tries to obtain an address even though its fixed ? so when
looking with ipconfig it shows 0.0.0.0 address as it looks for a dhcp
server
If you look in the network proberties gui the address is there as a
172.17.0.3 address the server I presume is being issued the same address
but as its already assigned because it has it fixed it compains 2
machine have the same address
FIX
dissable networking and re enable it - I dont want to keep walking to
the remote site I did find this tool
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=311272
BUT how can I test for and address of 0.0.0.0. or a certain amout of
uptine to run the command once to dissable the networking then again to
enable it would a batch file in the startup work - also has anyone else
had silimar problems
Machine is an old compaq proliant server with windows 2003 it has 2
network cards in a team
even without the teaming the machine has the same problems
even with one card dissabled it has the same problems
