Installation issues / Re: DHCP server not issuing an IP Address !!!

« on: November 15, 2007, 01:55:19 pm »

I wouldn't have posted this if I had found anything on DHCP not working.

I cannot connect with static IP on PC but when I put that magic little dot in the circle next to obtain IP from DHCP the CORE doesn't seem to work.

Is there any way to see if DHCP is working or Not?

Installation issues / DHCP server not issuing an IP Address !!!

« on: November 14, 2007, 12:36:22 pm »

Hi,

I have installed from DVD onto a PC has one NIC. I have the PC connected to a switch and a laptop also connected to the switch no ADSL router in sight 

The core allocates an IP address internal 192.168.80.1 with external 192.168.80.254.

I have my laptop, running windows XP to obtain a DHCP address supposedly from the core but it does not. If I manually allocate 192.168.80.5 to my laptop it allows me to connect to the Admin webpage.

I want to PXE boot my laptop but if DHCP is not working on the core what chance have I got?

I have installed and reinstalled about 4 times now.

HELP !!!!!

Incidentally is there any way from the DVD install to only install Core not Media Director also?

Thanks
