You may have the dhcp service running and not configured Or you may have 2 domains on your network and the DHCP service has recognised that it is not authorised to service clients on the other domain.. Either way - you need to configure your DHCP service or else diable the service or unistall the service - Its not a big deal - Unless its the only DHCP server on the network in which case you just need to configure it...

Go to services, or from a command prompt run net start, and look for the dhcp server service. It may well be that you have not configuered any dhcp scopes, but it sounds like the server itself has been installed. if so disable the service and that should be it, or you can actually uninstall it if you prefer. The error you are seeing is because the dhcp service appears to be running on your 2nd dc, but in 2000 the server must be manually authorised to give out addresses (this stops rogue dhcp servers screwing things up), and it's logging the fact that it hasn't been authorised.
