When widows shuts down it does not release the ip address
in the DHCP SERVER. Does any out there has the same
problem in thire network. We use WIN NT as our DHCP server
and win2000 pro as clint PCs

I am likely missing something in the translation here, but check the length
of the lease of the IP to the given machine. By default I believe it to be
~ a week. Or, do you know whether or not this particular IP is reserved for
a particular machine / MAC Address?

When a workstation is issued an ip address,the duration
of the lease will govern the length of time it keeps that
particular ip address for. The workstation will not
attempt to release the ip address, it will instead try to
renew the lease every time it boots up and before the
lease is due to expire.
You can manualy release the ip address by doing the
following:
From a command prompt type IPCONFIG /RELEASE
