    We have just converted to DHCP and would like to limit the ability of people
    to plug in to the network without authorization. In Win2K is it possible to
    limit DHCP assignments by MAC address or some other mechanism to keep rogue
    machines out? My server admins have been researching this but can't find a
    method to achieve what we want. Thanks.

    Jake
