Re: User Access Denied With DHCP Admin. Group?

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

don't just add a user to enterprise admins group. That is too much power for
someone just to manage DHCP.

DHCP servers are authorized after being installed and ready to be used.
After that you only administer DHCP by creating scopes, etc.

if you want to delegate the authorization of DHCP servers see:
