The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0 Terminal Server Edition SP4
This article was previously published under Q239110

SYMPTOMS

After you install Service Pack 4 (SP4) for Windows NT Server 4.0, Terminal Server Edition, the fixes and added functionality for the DHCP Server service are not available.

CAUSE

SP4 does not copy the updated Dhcpssvc.dll file to the computer.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this issue, extract the SP4 files and copy the newer Dhcpssvc.dll file to the %SystemRoot%\System32 folder:
  1. Type wtsi386.exe /x or wtsalpha.exe /x at a command prompt.
  2. In the Choose Directory for Extracted Files box, type the full path of the folder into which you want to extract the files.

    NOTE: Do not extract the files into the %SystemRoot% or %SystemRoot%\System32 folder.
  3. Click OK, and then click OK.

    Note that the extracted files require substantial disk space.
  4. Copy the current Dhcpssvc.dll file to another name or location.
  5. Copy the newer (dated 3/30/1999) Dhcpssvc.dll file to the %SystemRoot%\System32 folder.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Terminal Server Service Pack 4.
