DHCP (techies only) - SUCCESS!!

Anyone have any idea why one of my machines (XP Pro) stubbornly refuses to recognise DHCP IP assignations? Doesn't make any difference whether the DHCP server is Windows or Linux.

I've changed cables, the network card and even done a repair installation of XP - nada, keeps defaulting to APIPA.

It's driving me nuts!
