DHCP question

[Rob]

Hi,
All my clients are using DHCP server on my 2000 DC for IP
configuration, The lease duration is Unlimited.
Now I need to change the Default Gateway and I want to
force this change right away or at least whenever they re-
logon. So if I just change the DG on DHCP server and ask
people to logoff and logon again whould take care of that
or should I do something else.
Thanks in advance-Rob

Have them shutdown and restart. Set the lease period to one day.
