DHCP Not Working Properly

I have a few Windows 98Se computers that are in a network setup as clients with an NT 4.0 server sp6a. The server has been setup with DHCP and a scope. Everything was working fine until I installed Sygate on one of the workstations as a proxy server. After this I lost the ability to log on to my main server with DHCP (Obtain address automatically). Sygate was removed and networking via DHCP is gone? Hard coding the IP address makes everything work! Could someone tell me how to fix this problem? BTW, I ran NetMon and saw only DHCPREQEST from a workstation and that was it.

check that your proxy didn't install lmhost entries on the client and also at command prompt type nbtstat -RR to flush the name cache. i don't know sygate but wingate sets up its own dhcp and dns and tells the client where to find them. these are overridden by manual settings but not dhcp. ipconfig /all might tell you how it thinks it is configured
