Hello List, Suppose I have 100 Desktops, and I want my DHCP server to _only_ assign IP addresses to these hosts, using MAC addresses, is there a way to tell the DHCP server to NOT assign any IP address to a machine whose MAC address it doesn't know? I don't want any computer being plugged onto my LAN and getting/using resources without my knowledge. Just some level of paranoia:-) -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ "Life must be understood backwards; but... it must be lived forward." - Soren Kierkegaard "Oh My God!
