Platform: Windows 2003
The return of the B: drive! Today I was fumbling around with a new 2K3 Server (Standard Edition) and discovered I could reassign my CDROM drive to letter B: This is not possible under 2K and XP, as I checked them. This is great, since the concept of two floppy drives has died so long ago I feel quite aged when thinking about it. What to make B: ? CDROM of course!

If you are having a problem seeing your machine dynamically register itself in DNS, make sure you are running the DHCP client services. Logic would dictate that you don't need to run this if using a statically assigned address (which is what I do on all of our servers), but the DHCP client service is what takes your IP and registers it in DNS. Re-enable the DHCP Client service to automatic and reboot (just starting it didn't seem to do it for me), and you'll see it in your DDNS server again.
