Hello!

We were recently inconvenienced by the downtime of the machine acting as
the DHCP server.  So I'm wondering if  it is possible to  have more then
one DHCP server support the same family of clients.

My  primary concern  is, of  course, to  ensure no  server assigns  to a
client  an IP  address  that's  already assigned  by  another server  to
another client.  But I'd  also prefer  to only  administrate one  of the
servers  and have  the other  pick up  the changes  much like  secondary
DNServers pick the updates from the primary.

Thanks for ideas/pointers.

	-mi
