%systemroot%\system32\dhcp\backup should have it all. Copy that over to the new server and do a DHCP restore. (right-click on the server name and select restore and point it at the backup folder you copied) On Sun, Jun 6, 2010 at 10:13 AM, Graeme Carstairs wrote: > Hi, > > Yeh I moved t

Here's a some things to try. Double check that both sides of the link have speed and duplex set to autonegotiate. Per the IEEE 802.3ab autonegotitation is mandatory for gigabit. Hard-coding both sides *may* work but is not to standard and is not recommended. Hard-coding just one side will not w
