"I could reserve them, but they won't be in a nice sequential order like she wants."
Why not? Couldn't you reserve the range for her classroom and assign IP Addresses to individual MAC addresses in whatever order she wants? (I'm assuming you mean that she essentially wants IP addresses assigned in some kind of order that is in relation to the way the room is physically laid out?) ...Aside from the fact that in doing so you would be setting a precedent. This may or may not be a good thing for your sanity, depending on how big of a campus you are supporting. Jonathan L.

I have a situation where one of the professors wants to keep students from cheating by restricting access to online quizes using the IP addresses of the classroom workstations. She can do this with the software. Here is my problem - not surprisingly I'm using a DHCP server. I refuse to give over half the campus static IP addresses. I could reserve them, but they won't be in a nice seqential order like she wants. Is there another option I am missing? -- Organization and good planning are just crutches for people that can't handle stress and caffeine. - unknown ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ________________________________ Any medical information contained in this electronic message is CONFIDENTIAL and privileged.
