Stupid DHCP Question

On a WIN2K3 server is it possible to assign a DHCP address during specific
hours? I want to only let my nanny use her computer off hours. Her PC is a
WIN98, so I can not set "LOGON HOURS", she could just hit ESC.

Thanks

Steve

No.

And there's nothing to stop her from hard coding her IP address.

Yeah I know that, that doesnt answer my question about only getting an
address during certain hours.

Group policies.

Check out group policies. You can load a policy on the Win98 system such
that no logon is permitted unless the system authenticates with the
network.

You don't have to do this through the server. Just run the policy editor
on that system.

Win98 Workstation.

Trying to lock down a win98 workstation is a futile act.

You won't lock it down as far as a power user is concerned (all you need to
do is boot with a DOS floppy and edit the registry to remove the policies).
But locking down for use by a nanny? No problem.

Of course the obvious course of action is to just track her activities
online. If she uses the system during work hours, fire her ass.

Or give her a raise (e.g. if she uses the Internet to solve a crisis
with the kids).

I tried using Group Policies to only let Authenticated users logon. Doesn't
seem to be working. Do I need to save it any where specific? Would this
fix the ESC issue?
