Q.

Since I have applied Support Pack 5 to my NetWare 5.1 server (or Support Pack 2 for NetWare 6 servers), my workstations keep releasing and renewing their IP addresses every 4 seconds. How do I fix this?

Dear Reg: Take a look at Technical Information Document (TID) #10074067 at http://support.novell.com/cgi-bin/search/searchtid.cgi?/10074067.htm

Entitled "Clients Not Consistently Getting IP Addresses from DHCP Server," this TID outlines the steps to stop such a thing from happening.
