WinXP DHCP Server

[MrHeMan]

I run a DHCP server via Windows XP (Pro). Everything works fine, then, at random, it seems to stop sharing the internet connection, ie I am unable to ping anything (from a client). When I connect to the internet server through Remote Desktop, the internet connection is still live and I can ping through it there.

I found what seems to solve the problem, is to disable the lan connection, and then re-enable it. Problem is here, I have to access it remotely and I cannot simply disable/re-enable the connection remotely.

Does anyone know of a fix or another way around this problem?

Thanks in advance.

Are you sure there are no IP conflicts on the network? Sounds like that may be happening....

Thanks,

Nope, there are no conflicts.
