vpn using alternate dhcp

[mt]

Currently I have a win2kserver VPN thats working by giving address' from a
static address pool. We have a completely separate machince running as a
dhcp server.

I've read that the only way to use your dhcp server to distribute address to
vpn clients is to have the vpn and dhcp server on the same machine.

Is this true or is there a way for the vpn server to point out the dhcp
server to the clients?

please email

You can use a dhcp relay agent on your RRAS/VPN server to lease address to
your vpn and dial in clients.
