SYMPTOMS
Your DHCP server has IP address reservations that are outside of your DHCP
scope. After you apply Service Pack 4, clients that match these reservations no longer receive IP addresses from the server.
CAUSE
The Service Pack 4 release includes several quality improvement fixes to
correct known Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) problems. One was
to check for invalid database records that contain out of scope IP
addresses. Unfortunately, this also includes "Out of Scope" reservations
which are legal.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Windows NT 4.0 or Windows NT Server 4.0, Terminal Server Edition or
the individual software update. For information on obtaining the
latest service pack, please go to:

STATUS
