Jeff,
        You've got HSRP configured with what looks like alternating
priorities. Do you have ip helper on the other routing device?
Technically, it should work on just one, and with both you'll get 2
forwarded bootp requests, but you'd need that if you lost the primary MSFC
with the helper statements. That's the only difference I see between VLAN 4
and 5.

HI Jeff,

I've just scanned down the post and the debug messages do seem strange,

Can you confirm that:
1. the Winnt server has a scope defined corectly for vlan 5
2. that the switch has "ip classless" and "ip subnet-zero" switched on
3. If that still does not work try setting the helper address on vlan 5 to
the broadcast address on vlan 2, ie 10.2.2.255

good luck

Adam

Hi Group,

The following is the related config. The dhcp server is a WinNT, located in
Vlan 2
Vlan 4 dhcp clients can get ip while vlan 5 clients can't. They use the same
dhcp server.
The switch can ping the dhcp server. Also, if I assign an address manually
to
a host in vlan 5, the connection is ok.

interface Vlan2
ip address 10.2.2.252 255.255.255.0
no ip redirects
no ip mroute-cache
standby 2 preempt
standby 2 ip 10.2.2.254

interface Vlan4
ip address 10.2.4.252 255.255.255.0
ip helper-address 10.2.2.3
ip helper-address 10.2.2.170
no ip redirects
no ip mroute-cache
standby 4 preempt
standby 4 ip 10.2.4.254

interface Vlan5
ip address 10.2.5.252 255.255.255.0
ip helper-address 10.2.2.3
ip helper-address 10.2.2.170
no ip redirects
no ip mroute-cache
standby 5 priority 150 preempt
standby 5 ip 10.2.5.254

Thanks for your help!

Jeff

can you ping from the router?
