When we first installed Server 2003 we gave it the wrong subnet mask
(255.0.0.0) We later managed to correct that to 255.255.255.0

However the DHCP server is still hading out 255.0.0.0 to clients. When i
look at the properties for the scope the subnet fields are disabled. How can
I edit the scope to correct the subnet?

Thanks.

IIRC you'll have to delete / re-create the scope.

Thank you Todd,

that cured it. I was reluctant to delete / recreate the scope in case there
was something special about the first one ever added to the server.

It appears that you are unable to edit the subnet of any scope after it has
been created.

All is well now.
