Switch one of them off. You only need one DHCP server on the network. In almost all cases the DHCP service on the 2003 server is the one to use....
What is the OS on the problem PC? Is it the XP Home system or one of the XP pros?
OK - lets start with the basics. A surprising number of DHCP problems are caused by faults on the cable - especially an intermittent Rx...
Jeff, Before I forget, if you are running Active Directory on the 2003 server, DNS needs to be set as the IP address of the server, and not the...
Windows 2003 Simple straight forward UI, Shadow copy, remote administration. The more I use it, the more I like it. It just gets on with the job...

Are you running any other applications on the ISA server? This search might lead you in the right direction....
I am fairly confident you also need to set up Exchange to see the domain as one of its own. If your mail server is set up to accept any domain...
Some N routers have more antennae so you might get a little bit of extra range, but I doubt it. This also assumes that the N router has G...
If you are on a tight budget I can recommend Backup Assist: http://www.backupassist.com/index.html This Microsoft article may point you in...
Are you using the same cable both times? NAT does not need dynamic IPs. It would be better to assign the address statically rather than with...
That makes sense. All agreed then :D
What e-mail server are you using? If Exchange, why not limit them to web Outlook.
IMO - only one major objection noahdfear: you must secure the server. The server is a trusted resource. If it gets compromised you have big...
Using a router or firewall with IDS built in is the better option
Switch back to using DHCP on the server (switch off DHCP at the router). In DHCP on the server update the scope option 003 Router to the IP...
