[TriLUG] dhcp relay question

Newbie routing/dhcp question!!

Running DHCP on a Mandrake box to privide dhcp services to our network. 
 I am not able to provide DHCP to subnets beyond the network that the 
server lives on.  It is my understanding that routers do not broadcast 
DHCP request.  I am using a Mandrake box also to do static routing.  If 
I install and configure dhcp relay on the routers should this allow 
other subnets to obtain a dhcp ack?  

Thanks in advance,
--cgb
