it is possible to set up reservations for each ip address based on the mac
address of each nic. it would be a lot of work depending on the sixe of
your network, and then, what was the point of going to DHCP?
if your network is copmletely win2k you could institute an IPSec policy for
the domain, via group policy force the servers to only communicate encrypted
and set your workstations to reply encrypted when they are asked.
then, someone coming into your network cannot simply plug-in and get going.
they won't be able to talk to the DHCP server as it will want encrypted
comm. you could then manually assign them an IP and external DNS not on
your network. then they should be able to talk to your gateway and have
internet, but not have access to the rest of the network.
(hope you're not running a domain member w2k server as your gateway)
