We are having a problem on one of our subnets that is intermittent. Once every few months the DHCP gateway entry just disappears on this one subnet scope. We find out about it when someone complains about their inability to logon or to surf the Internet. It happens at different times of the day. We are running Server 2003 SP 1. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Did anyone ever resolve this issue? We are experiencing the exact same problem. I recently applied SP2, and it still occurs. It only happens with one scope inparticular. My next step is to delete the scope and re-create it.

Try this and let me know if the condition exists in your environment. Take a look at the reservations and leases in your problem scope. Is there an entry there, a reservation or a lease, that has the same IP address as the scope? Could that be the problem?

Thanks for the reply. There was not a conflict that I could find. I finally deleted the entire scope in June and re-created it. I have not had a problem since re-creating it. I chalked it up to a quirk or blip when I originally built it.

Hi,

I have recreated the scope on windows 2003 server SP2 and it still losses the gateway. If you have any ideas i would really appreciate the help.

Thanks
