In the DHCP Console, right click on the DHCP server name, choose

the credentials for a dedicated user account that should (probably) have a
non-expiring password. The non-expiring password is optional and is a
security risk if you give the account to many priviledges. I usually make
this account a member of the guests group, making it the primary group and
deleting the users group,  which seems to have all the priviledges it
needs.

I LOVE YOU!!!!
Thanks, this solves my problem... thank you a lot!!

If I understand correctly, normally PCs in the domain write directly their
entry in the DNS zone and they are authorized by default cause they are
part of the domain. This doesn't happen for PC/devices not in the domain,
so we have to give DHCP server authorization to insert entries in the DNS
zone, am I right?
