Hello,

Have two clients, two sbs servers. identical Dells, two companies in one
building, different networks. On both servers, one up for about 6 months,
the other up for three months, I am seeing the following errors in the event
logs on all the clients. All XP PRO Service Pack 1 PC on Server1. A mixture
of Win2k/XP Pro PCS on server two.

Event Id 1003
DHCP
Your computer was not able to renew its address from the network (from the
DHCP Server) for the network card with network address....... The following
error occurred:
The Semaphone timeout period has expired. Your computer will continue to try
and obtain an address on its own from the network address DHCP server.

It is a warning but is it a sign of things to come?
