Two Domains Sharing 1 Novell DHCP Server

by timothy.sharpe . Updated 22 years ago

We are a state agency with 6 regional offices; we are running Windows 2000 AD with Windows 2000 all servers and workstation. We are using DNS. We have 6 sites setup with subnets defined. Servers have static IP addresses and all workstations and laptops get dynamic IP address from Win 2000 DHCP server. The problem is that one of our offices is moving and is now going to be sharing space with another state agency and we have been told we need to use their IP range. They are a Novell shop and they use static IP addresses on all equipment. They are not using DNS. I have a really bad feeling about this but I need some help in making my argument against this scenario. Are their any known pitfalls in what I just explained? I?m assuming that replication will stop since we are using DNS and they are using WINS.
