Hi, I have a problem. We are using hyperv vm. We use deployment server to deploy w2008R2 on the vm then restart from local disk. Once I restart and run "ipconfigue" I only get automatic IP address. Then once i run "ipconfig /renew" I am able to get the IP from dhcp right away. win2008 sp2 doesn't have this problem. onle R2 has this problem. Note. we are using trunk network which means one vlan carries several vlans. Any thoughts? Thank you. Fang

Hi, After checking the issue, it seems this is a general Sever 2008 related issue. As this forum focuses on Windows Vista specific issues, this inquiry would best be posted to Windows 2008 R2 forum: http://windows2008forum.com/ The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us.
