Help Setting up DHCP

We have a ISP provider providing 2 T1's to 2 locations and a DSL Modem to a 3rd location.
There is a Cisco 1760 router with a Cisco 2950 at the T1 locations. We have a Winproxy
and Linux wins setup at both sites. A AS/400 is at site 1 which all access. Again our ISP
is providing the bridge.

All pc's are setup with static ip addresses and we now need to setup DHCP. We are now
having the problem of people moving between the locations and I need help setting up
to use DHCP. I was thinking about using the AS/400 as a DHCP server but I don't know
if that's the best solution or really where I need to start. Any help would be appreciated.

The Cisco routers can also be your DHCP server, you've really got a wide range of stuff you can configure - very easy too..

There is a Linux Wins Server running Samba at each location. Can DHCP be setup on these boxes? If so how would the third DSL location work? I am not wanting to use the AS/400 for this but they are pushing for it.

Scotty_cisco

yes the linux boxes would work great for this.... what is at the third location?

Thanks

Here is the setup example (not real IP#):

Loc1 Cisco 1760 - Winproxy - Cisco 2950 - Lan - Linux Wins - Iseries 270 Netserver
IP address 68.2.194.31 Local ip 192.168.10.1
Subnet 255.255.255.224
Gateway 68.2.194.30
DNS 217.26.136.3 216.26.136.20

Loc2 Cisco 1760 - Winproxy - Cisco 2950 - Lan - Linux Wins
IP address 68.2.195.31 Local ip 192.168.11.1
Subnet 255.255.255.224
Gateway 68.2.195.30
DNS 217.26.136.3 216.26.136.20

Loc3 DSL Modem
IP address 63.242.134.154
Subnet 255.255.252.0

Well it looks like I don't have a choice and will be trying to get this to work on the AS/400.
Thanks for all the advice.
