    Hi all,

    Maybe itīs a newbie question, but anyway, i would appreciate a little
    help.

    Iīm working on a W2003 Enterprise Edition Server and recently i
    removed DHCP service, which i do not need.

    Even so, udp ports 67 & 68 are still open (bootps and bootpc). Still
    far ok, nothing unexpected.

    Anyway, i was wondering if by any means there is a way to "shut down"
    these ports. I read that the bootps and bootpc are related to the
    bootstrap protocol, and found no material in the ms web page.

    I donīt know if these "services" are needed for the system to work. I
    donīt know whether boot.ini uses them...

    Please help me diminishing my ignorance...

    NPKF.
