We have a large Windows NT Network that has a NT server running the MS DHCP manager. We are able to have all Microsoft Workstations obtain a IP address from the DHCP server. We would like to know if the following operating systems are capable of obtaining a IP address from our MS DHCP server. Macintosh OS Linux FreeBSD Any information will be appreciated. Thanks, Dan Weber weber@aux.bfs.uwm.edu
