Manage WINS & DHCP by Using Only Local Administrator Privilege

• Microsoft Windows NT Server versions 3.5, 3.51, 4.0
• Microsoft Windows NT Workstation version 4.0

SUMMARY

You can manage the Windows Internet Name Service (WINS) and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) services on a standalone (non-domain) Windows NT server by using a non-administrator domain user account that has administrator privileges only on the standalone Windows NT server.

MORE INFORMATION

To manage the WINS and DHCP services, you must have administrator privileges on the server running these services. Your logon account must be added to the local Administrators group on the standalone server. You can then manage these services with only domain user rights (that is, you don't have to have administrator rights on the domain you are a member of). You can also manage multiple domains in this way if trusts are established between these domains.
