The patch would not be very large anyway, so the "lots > of extra code" argument applies only a little I know this is a little biased, but I've just reviewed all the standard DHCP options Windows DHCP server has and I think if you were to add the following options, that would cover all the useful ones actually on offer (fighting words I know! ;-)
* TFTP (150) * WPAD (252) Even then WPAD isn't really needed as there's a much better alternative (wpad.* dns name) that works fine over openvpn, and the TFTP one is really just because of Cisco's product (I can't think of any other non boot-time application that wants to use TFTP to gain data - haven't they heard of SRV DNS records???) That would make for a small patch ;-) PS: I ignored my favorite "sounds useful, but is poorly supported" Timezone (101) option because your computer's timezone should always come from your physical location - not the remote end of a VPN tunnel. I think a lot of DHCP options aren't needed for the same reason -- Cheers Jason Haar Corporate Information Security Manager, Trimble Navigation Ltd.
