DHCP client could not obtain IP adress

DHCP client could not obtain IP adress

(OP)
Hi all,

"DHCP client could not obtain IP adress"

What does this message mean? How can I get rid of it?

(Despite clicking on NO on the question "Do you want to see this message again?", the message shows up once more on start up). I have WINNT4 with SP6a.

Thanks for helping.

RE: DHCP client could not obtain IP adress

DHCP is a dynamic IP address configuration method, whereby your computer does not have a fixed IP address and instead, requests an IP address assignment from a DHCP server.  Your computer is thus configured.  If you are not really using your network, you can simply set the NT for a fixed IP address.
