Here is my setup. I have my main office in Boca but have 5
remote office accross North America connected to me via
Frame Relay. I would like to setup the remote offices with
DHCP but I can't place servers at each location at this
time, I am upgrading the PC (they have 98SE) to new P4
with XP Pro and was wondering if I could setup one of the
XP Pro PC's to act as a DHCP?
 
Hi,

XP doesn't have a DHCP relay or server, but you could enable ICS (Internet
Connection Sharing) and that would enable XP's DHCP mini service that
assigns clients IP addresses in the 192.168.x.x range, but has no
configuration options.

Thanks,
