Re: Help with external DHCP issue
hello Josh, I am facing some what similar issue.I have added a new computer host(virtual machine). I checked the dhcp.conf files, the addressing, etc/hosts file. But on making a reservation, my virtual machine does startup, but its not getting any IP addresses assigned. Its unable to detect any networks created, I have renamed the .vmdk and -flat.vmdk files according to the naming convention (Note: we are using ESX provisioning and it is a Windows 2003 image). Is there anythin specific you wanted me to check??
