DHCP - 2 NICs

[Guest]

I am new to DHCP so please excuse my ignorance if this is an easy problem...

I am currently setting up a very small windows 2000 AD network. The server
that will handle DHCP has two NICs in it. Each NIC will be connected to a
seperate internal network (no internet access). The two networks should not
be able to see each other and should have different IP schemes (ie. network A
- 192.168.1.x and network B 192.168.2.x). I should also not that the DHCP
server is also performing most other server rolls (ie. Domain Controller,
DNS, etc.)

Is it possible to have the DHCP service run two networks off of two network
cards in windows 2000? If yes, can you point me to an article to help me set
it up.

Thanks,

Rusty

Yes it is possable Rusty you would set up a scope for each network.
you can look in windows 2000 help under Planning DHCP Networks,Best
Practies, and Configuring Scopes you should be able to find everything you
need to know there.

The DHCP would be fine "as is" by just having a Scope for each subnet. Your
problem is everything else.
