What would be the cause of being unable to pull an ip address from the dhcp server. Besides the DHCP Server being to busy. It takes anywhere from 15 to 30 tries to accept and pack the ip address. This happens on all different types of hardware and windows os.

I would try NT's Network Monitor Tools and Agent (protocol analyser) Install from Network Icon, Services. You can also run it from the clients if they are NT Workstation. Filter the captures for DHCP protocol, and try and see what is happening in the 15 to 30 tries.
