All, I've some references to DHCP but nothing that answers my question. Currently part of our network is on a 144.118.xx.xx IP address scheme. We're converting over to a 129.25.xx.xx address scheme. Currently all the machines being backed up have static IP addresses. However some of them will have to use DHCP when we switch over to the new IP address scheme. I'm trying to find out how much of a hassle I'm going to have during this switch over. Since this is being done in stages, the computers being backed up that will be using DHCP will be switched first and the backup server (Retro 4.2A) switched last.
