[THIN] Re: OT: dhcp conflict detection? (Roger Riggins)

If you want static to be able to track an IP address over time then I would suggest DHCP reservations. You'll get what you're looking for but will still have a more dynamic and flexible network. I can add a new DNS server in DHCP and be done in 10 seconds. I use it for servers, switches, printers... etc. without issue. I can look at my reservation list and see in real time what I've got vs. looking at a spreadsheet of IPs that may not be current. I can also pull up statistics and quickly see how many addresses are available on each subnet. ...

[THIN] Auto-restored client printers (Anthony_Baldwin)

All, We have a group of external users that keep having auto-restored client printers show up in their Citrix sessions to our farm. I'm not aware of anything in our farm that would create this auo-restored client printers (my understanding is that it's a manual process of an administrator calling the addprinter function that creates these things). All these users are connecting to our CAG/AAC/WI setup from the Internet. ...
