Thank you very much, Bonnie. I had to improvise a little bit to get it fixed, but it remains true that I still would have been clueless now were it not for the link below.

Use with caution though-I had to do this one time (the Win2k version) to remove a bad one and it wiped out some authorized servers. If you do make any changes, make sure you check your list afterwards and confirm all of your authorized servers are still there. http://www.msresource.net/knowledge_base/how-tos/unauthorizing_a_dhcp_se rver.html -Bonnie From: E. Peeters [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 12, 2008 9:41 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Deleting DHCP server / netsh does not work Hello gang, I ran into a little problem I can't seem to get around while cleaning up the AD of a small acqusition I need to bring under our own AD. Their AD lists several authorized DHCP servers (netsh dhcp show server) that are no longer DHCP servers: -One does not exist anymore; -One is a duplicate of an existing server, but with a different address and FQDN; -One is a server that is now hosting their database. I've tried deleting them (netsh dhcp delete server fqdn ip) but I get the same error message for all three: "there is no such object on the server" This is where I am stumped. How do I delete servers that netsh both say exist but really don't ? ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
