The DHCP Server included with Windows NT Server 4.0 does not have any
redundancy capability. The only way to have redundancy is two servers with
non-overlapping ranges which is the same case as ISC DHCP. Windows 2000 may
have some form of redundancy, but I'm not certain. 3rd party products
(MetaIP, et al) probably have some form of redundancy, but I don't know for
certain.

Dear folks,
I'm told that Windows NT dhcp server supports redundant servers; if one
falls over, then the other takes over. Does the ISC DHCP server support
such a system? Yes, I'm sure there are ways and means of doing it using
something like rsync and some cleverness, but is there direct support?
Some positive answer would be needed before the computer centre in this
college would consider changing from their failure prone NT DHCP server
to the ISC server running on Linux.
