My management is lucky to have DHCP :) Until I put this P75 in place I was
managing all static IP addresses. They were screaming for it, they got it. It
was my way or the old way :)

I completely agree with you. We resell/recommend a DHCP server to our
customers, and I've been told to use it in house. I've spent hours with the
engineers trying to configure it properly. I spent 1 hour reading the man
page, compiling, installing, and configuring the ISC server. I haven't found
anything easier to use, nor anywhere near as reliable!

If Samba can have one, then we can too :) Samba has at least as many options
as the DHCP server!

Hmm, I just looked at what I was running, 2.0b1pl6 :) Guess I should upgrade!
