Hi All,
Please help me....

My PDC Server is using Windows Server 2003 and using DHCP IP.

I want every guest that's not join on my Domain Server is not automatically get IP when they connect the network cable to their notebook.

Cheers,

first up you should statically set the PDC IP addres and configure it to be the DHCP server.

when you configure the DHCP server you point all leases to use the DNS which you should have enabled on your PDC, unless you have a dedicated DNS server.

you could set up manual internal ip address for all computers you want in your network and not have a dhcp server. therefore, anytime a foreign person attaches a network ethernet cable to a computer you don't want to get an internal ip, then that won't happen. there won't be a dhcp server to hand out ips.

the other thing you could do is set up 2003 to hand out ips and include in the scope only those mc addresses you want to give ips for. if your network is big, then that might not be possible.

otherwise, it's kind of hard to do that without some third party software.
