[X-Servers] 10.3.9 Server - DHCP and Static IP Addressing

[S. F. Sobczynski]

Hi All,

We have a Netopia R5300 T1 router, with a block of .1-.31 static 
assigned internet IPs. Minus 1 address for the router, it is set to 
pass the others through untouched. We previously had the router 
handling NAT and DHCP but had one of our DHCP Windows clients catch a 
Worm and do a broadcast directly through the router.

Two things:
1. I would like the rest of the static IPs to pass through our XServe 
for improved firewall, monitoring, etc. but to still be accessible 
to/from the internet.

2. I am also trying to set up a block of 192.168.0.x addresses to be 
DHCPed through the XServer, predominately for the Windows users.

I have succeeded in getting AFP, DNS, Firewall and VPN activated but 
am having trouble setting up DHCP or the static addresses (other than 
the IP for the XServe itself). No luck at all with setting up the 
static IPs (using NAT?) and only partial luck setting up the DHCP 
addresses. If I manually set addresses from the DHCP address block on 
the client computers everything works fine. But if I set it up for 
dynamic assignment the addresses do not get passed down to the client 
machines and they are unable to connect.

I have looked through all the docs, looked through the discussion 
boards and posted to the Apple Discussion list but have been unable 
to find any info to solve these two items. Anyone have any ideas or 
direction to materials covering this?

TIA,
Stan
