Our installation deletes the VMs when a user logs out and deploys a new one in its place. That makes sure that every user gets a clean installation. It also means we have substantial churn in the DHCP scope for that subnet. It would make life easier if I could figure out how to release the IP when the machine gets removed. I tried adding a shutdown task to the mix to do an ipconfig /release but that didn't seem to work. Any ideas on why or alternatives? I've shortened the lease times in that scope so the unused addresses get recycled, but making them too short winds up creating DNS issues. The release should actually help in both areas.
