> Enable DNS dynamic updates according to the settings below:
> Always dynamically update DNS A and PTR records
> Discard A and PTR records when lease expires.
> Dynamically update DNS A and PTR records for DHCP clients that do not

> Advanced tab: Click the "Credentials" button, and enter the credentials, for

> These options:
> 015 DNS Domain Name
> 002 Microsoft Windows 2000 Release DHCP lease on shutdown. (0x1)

> I also recommend reducing lease time to 1 day.

> Keep in mind, the DHCP server uses the DNS servers listed in TCP/IP
