hi gavin,

>>we have iphelper statement on switch if local dhcp server unavailable

please disable iphelper statement , try renew client's ip again.

>> the issue having 90% of clients getting addresses remote dhcp server.

other clients obtain ip address local dhcp server?

if yes, please check if iphelper configuration correct , contact switch provider effect support.

you catch packet analyze issue after you disabled iphelper, please check if client has sent request or dhcp server has received broadcast packet.

best regards

john

oclist /xml or /?

oclist have qualifiers? can behaviour changed, example output xml?   given previous comments andrew m , comments in forums , blogs think answer no, it’s simple app calling underlying api, thought i'd ask can't seem find anything.   why asking question? i'd @ least 2 things oclist (apart nicer looking output [which i'm not going get], dependances listed [dicussed in forum , ruled out], , refrushing add ad componets , telling use dcpromo [which in banner know]): - whether installing component cuase / require reboot (currently believe qwave , printing services require reboot)   - xml output, can't justify team looking see if can commality with full server   fwiw :j   hi,   oclist not have qualifiers or ways change output. when iis came in late, make oclist output longer, unfortunately late make significant changes.   i'll take feedback , add our list next version.   thanks,   andrew   ...
