After upgrading from SBS 5.1 to SBS 6 dhcp stopped working. It
displays message
on its window that it is started, but when I do (on Win XP machine):
ipconfig /renew
nothing happens, it times out after some time and nothing is
displayed on DHCPSRVR Debug Screen. When I set IP address of this Win
XP machine manually
it works ok and pings the server with no problems, what is wrong? why
dhcp server is not working?

John,
Check out that the NDS objects for the DHCP server are still OK. Use the
DNS/DHCP management console to do this.
If they are OK unload DHCPSRVR & reload it as DHCPSRVR -d2. This will
give you a debug screen & you can see what it is or isn't doing.
