Hello,

Hmm...yes this is very possible with MS DHCP.  It has just as many features
as an Linux DHCP service.

Im not sure how crippled the MS DHCP server is, but you should be able to
set host specific addresses and set them to a range that isnt in your
internet accessable range. I'd have to install Win 2k server to look though.

Maybe someone running DHCP on a windows server could jump in now with some
answers   :)

Thanks for your quick reply !

DHCP is no problem to me. But we use our DHCP server for other purposes.
(Mobile workers with internet access). So the problem is that when I use
DHCP for the Thin Clients, they'll be consuming an 'internet-enabeled' IP.
Because we have serveral plants with in every site such a DHCP server, I
don't see any solution to fix it with DHCP. :o(

With kind regards,

Kristof

The IP addresses for the clients are set using DH
>P. You can set fixed IP
addresses based on the Ethernet (hardware) address of the client cards. I
assume you will be using a MS DHCP server, which means I cant really give
you an example config, but there should be enough info in the help for DHCP
