|
|
In previous versions of Windows NT, any server could have the DHCP service installed on it and could begin handing out IP addresses to clients automatically. With Windows 2000 Active Directory, a DHCP server must first be authorized before it will work properly. To authorize a DHCP server, you must have administrative rights in the Active Directory. On a computer that has DHCP installed, click Start, Programs, Administrative Tools, DHCP.
On the console tree, click DHCP. On the Action Menu, select Manage Authorized Servers. In the Manage Authorized Servers window, click Authorize. Enter the name or IP address of the DHCP server to be authorized as a DHCP server (the server must already have the DHCP service installed, and must be a member server or domain controller in the domain), and click OK. |
