Strange DHCP

Hi.
Iâ€˜ve just replaced my PC, a client on an SBS2k3 R2 system. Iâ€™ve also started
rebuilding my VPCâ€™s Iâ€™ve done an XP Pro + Win 7, both machines have problems
with DHCP. The IP Pool is 192.168.123.***.

Both VPCâ€™s are getting IPâ€™s of 192.168.131.*** IPCONFIG /ALL shows an IP for
the DHCP of 192.168.131.254 also same IP for default gateway. DNS is correct.
Iâ€™ve since built another VPC on another client and that DHCPâ€™s fine. It has
to be something with Virtual PC on this machine.

There are definitely no other DHCP servers on the network. There are no
other machines with a 192.168.131 IP. This DHCP Server is a complete ghost!
Any ideas please?
TIA
Jon

Thanks for the info guys. It would appear that VPC has not detected the NIC
on the host. I'll have a look and see if I can find out why.

The M/Board on my new PC is dual NIC, the 2nd adapter was set as default. I
swapped the NIC's over and rebooted, works fine now.

Thanks again.

Do you have the networking set to "Shared networking (NAT)" for the
VM's? 192.168.131.*** is the range it uses for that and the DHCP
server is VPC itself. You want to set the networking to you physical
adapter if you want it to get the address from your real DHCP server.
