SUMMARY
The Microsoft Windows NT Server version 3.5 Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol (DHCP) Manager does not display the host name of a DHCP
reservation acquired by the following clients:
- Microsoft Network Client for MS-DOS
- Microsoft LAN Manager 2.2c for MS-DOS
MORE INFORMATION
The DHCP manager displays the IP address and empty brackets for all leases
obtained by Microsoft Network Client for MS-DOS and Microsoft LAN Manager
2.2c for MS-DOS clients. The DHCP request frame does not contain a host
name options field and cannot be recorded by the DHCP manager.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Network Client
for MS-DOS, version 3.0 and Microsoft LAN Manager 2.2c for MS-DOS. We are
researching this problem and will post new information here in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
