Scripting solution needed for DHCP and trusted PDC/DHCP servers.

I have to obtain scope information from a large number of remote DHCP
servers that are also NT4 PDC servers. WMI is installed on each server but I
can't locate a method to get the scope information. I would really
appreciate someone's help to get this information.

Thanks in advance,
Scott Cooper

Use netsh - See:

Thank you Doug but the DHCP servers are NT4 which is not compatible with
this command.

For anyone monitoring this thread, I did find a workaround. Its not pretty,
but it seems viable. The registry contains configuration details in the
services section for DHCPServer. Many of the key values use hex or binary
and using DHCPCMD can provide some dynamic data like reservation & lease
information but unfortunatly, this command is also limited obtaining
information remotely from an NT4 DHCP.

Thanks again, and I am still on the lookout for a better utility or method
than what I am doing now.

Scott
