server IP Help

[neckoblack]

Im having some issues with a client and IP assignment, I want to assign an IP to each user and be able to sign in and out from one host but once I log out of the client to sign in into another it blocks and I don't know why

hey @neckobla

 

First of all, can you give me some basic info?

 

What OS is the server running?

 

What OS is the client running?

 

 

Some other info which might be helpfull. For example are you using a IP tabel to deny/grant access to the server?

 

 

 

Edit:  As said at the the post below me. IF youre using a ip tabel the client and server need static ip's.

What kind of application makes it desirable to assign IP addresses to server clients? Unless your whole network operates off of static addresses then the IP of each host computer will be different each day a user tries to access the server.

Sorry, the OS is windows 2012 R2, the client OS is windows 7 starter, i have the DHCP server set up and a pool of IPs

what i want to do is configure the server so that when a specific user logs in from any client the ip changes to an predetermined assigned one and when the user logs out and a new maybe random user logs in the ip changes

yes any host that connects will get an ip how ever what i want to accomplish is if a specific user logs in like User Sam, the pc he is log on gets a predetermined ip , i want to do this without using the clients mac address so if user Sam logs off and on from an other pc he will automatically get his reserved ip address and if someone logs on to the pc he was logged on to, they will be reassigned a new ip from the pool

Is the server providing DHCP services or is it just a file server running a domain service? Even when a user hasn't logged into a computer on the domain it will already have obtained an IP address. It wouldn't make any sense to want the computer to refresh it's IP to be assigned a static one based on the user who logs in.

 

What is the actual objective? Is this to track traffic flow? See where people are going on the network? Some form of security?

Yeah this doesn't seem to make much sense.

 

I don't even think this is possible using third party tools, unless you did some crazy Powershell scripting. Totally not recommended.

 

@neckoblack what is the objective here? Why does Sam need the same IP regardless of what computer he is using?
