Memory leak in tcpsvcs.exe on Windows 2003 R2 / SP2

[Sandy Wood]

I'm started to see a sizeable memory leak on the Windows 2003 R2/SP2 in
tcpsvcs.exe. All the servers are DCHP servers and Print servers. It appears
that this is a problem shared others out there. I find if I kill the process
it will start up at about 18meg and then slowly grow to take all my memory
over a week or so. I've scheduled nightly restarts as a temporary fix for
now. I've checked the DHCP scopes on all the servers and the databases are
clean.

Does anyone have a fix for this leak?

Hi,
I am having this exact same problem. I also get error messages in the
DNS server event viewer. These error messages are

Source: DNS
EventID: 4015
"The DNS server has encountered a critical error from the Active
Directory. Check that the Active Directory is functioning properly. The
extended error debug information (which may be empty) is "". The event
data contains the error."

and

Source DNS
EventID: 4004
"The DNS server was unable to complete directory service enumeration of
zone bps.local. This DNS server is configured to use information
obtained from Active Directory for this zone and is unable to load the
zone without it. Check that the Active Directory is functioning
properly and repeat enumeration of the zone. The extended error debug
information (which may be empty) is "". The event data contains the
error."

I thought these errors are likely to be linked to this problem. we are
using Norton Livestate recovery, but ceases to run a few days after
restarting. Help much appreciated.

disabling dynamic DNS updates in DHCP options and restarting the DHCP
service seems to have fixed this problem
