DHCP + RRAS on the same server?

[Juan Ignacio Gelos]

Hi,

Is there any issue with a DHCP Server running on the same machine as an
RRAS server doing NAT for the LAN? I obviously deactivated the DHCP feature
of RRAS before installing and authorizing the DHCP server, but I'm trying to
detect it from another LAN machine with dhcploc.exe and it doesn't receive
any packets...

Regards,
Juan

There shouldn't be any problem with that, you have to know that you will
only be able to reach DHCP from private network if you chose to enable
firewall on the public interface (on by default)

You should not face any issues with DHCP-RRAS co-existance. Check out this
link for more details on this setup:

The problems you are facing could be due to
1) Imporper network connectivity.
2) Improper relay agent configuration.
