DHCP location

[smitho1990]

Okay, so I've come into work just a week before we go back and our DHCP server is nackered.

We're wanting to take the C: drive out, plug it into another computer and recover DHCP like that.

Can anyone tell me the lcoation of where I can recover DHCP from?

 

Thanks in advance,

Dan

Whats gone up with the server? Would you be able to boot the drive into windows in other hardware?

C:\WINDOWS\system32\dhcp should be in there

You could just open up a command prompt and type the following

 

Type netsh dhcp server export C:\dhcp.txt all, press ENTER.

 

Should let you export the info out so it can be re-imported onto a new server

sorted, we managed to recover it from System32.

We've got another problem now. We need to recover the printer list from the server, but have no idea how... we don't think this is even possible.

We can't get into the OS.

its in C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool
