installing dhcp service in win2kpro?

[imported_CyberWire]

is there a service or update that will alow me to run the service under win2kpro? I dont wanna mess with changing all my computers to static...

Do you mean configuring Win2K to be a DHCP server, of configuring Win2K sothat its IP address is determined by a DHCP server? If its the latter, the option should be in the TCP/IP settings.

goto add/remove programs and choose "install component" in orer to install additional services (as setting up the system to be a dhcp server)

configuring as a server is what I mean. and I ont see that option to install the service in install like you said spiff.

oops... you're running Win2k Pro. I was thinking server. With Pro the only way to get that fucntionality is by setting up ICS (Internet Connection Sharing). There are numerous places on the web where you can get info on how this works and how to set it up.

I should clarify one more time. You can probably find a third party DHCP server on the web. Try Winfiles.com or Download.com or just do a search at google.com
