IP Address goes back to old address after TTL expires glennw 12/5/2008 3:23:01 PM I have changed the IP address on one of my member servers every 60 minutes it reverts back to an old address that is in the wrong IP range. I have tried manually adding it, taking it out, letting it register itself I have used DHCP for that VLAN and still it reverts back. I have 2 DC's and they are the only DNS machines in my network and no outside zone changes are allowed. I can't figure out where it's getting this address. I have turned down one DC to make sure it wasn't coming from either one of them. This is just so frustrating. I have had other MCSE's that are our tier support and they are stumped.

Re: IP Address goes back to old address after TTL expires glennw 12/5/2008 7:25:02 PM I have tried both static assignments and DHCP. I just moved it to a new NIC it pulled a new IP address and still it reverted back to the 192 address. I'm up to 6 additional MCSE's that can't figure out where the update is happening from so I just reset it and we are going to turn off the server and wait the hour to make sure it's not the member server causing the address change. Totally at a loss here.

RE: IP Address goes back to old address after TTL expires glennw 12/8/2008 6:03:02 PM What I have found out is if I change the name of the server it holds the new IP address it's not until I rename it to it's "Normal" name that it reverts back to the old IP address. I have to keep the server the same name due to the applications and the deployment of our work order system. So renaming isn't an option. I finally at this point reconfigured my switches and stuff to continue to use it as it was but this isn't the scope or the Vlan I want to leave the server in. I need to figure this out but need some additional options. Thanks
