    We removed an IP address on a 2003 Web Server and added it to a 2008R2 Web Server.

    After we reboot the 2003 Web Server the IP address reappears and causes a IP conflict. How can we prevent this from occuring again?

    Hi,

    Do you mean you add the IP address as a static IP for the Windows Server 2008 R2 Web Server?

    If yes, duplicate IP address conflicts may occur between the network device and a DHCP client computer.

    In these scenario, I recommend you exclude the IP address from the DHCP scope so that the Windows Server 2003 Web server won't get that IP address again.

    Best regards,

    Susie

    Under the 2003 server, uninstall/untick the TCP/IP protocol, effectivety removing the stack, restart Windows and enable it again. Also double-check the NIC doesn't have any alternative IP's assigned or is managed by a 3rd party management tool.

    Did you used to put that server in DHCP and it got a DHCP reservation too ?
