If the box has multiple nicks in it, each plugged into a separate hub thus
creating your Vlans you just need to create the different DHCP scopes
because the request will always hit a nic in the server. If you don't then
you need to make sure your switch will forward the request on to the DHCP
server.
In most cases this is called IP Helper (at least that's what cisco/foundry
call it)
Then you of course need to make sure your other scopes are set up.

Subject: [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
