Hello!

I'm using my computer as a Backup Domain Controller in my
network configuration.  We just moved our Main Domain from
running TCP/IP to DHCP so our Main Domain is also our DHCP Server.

My question is:  The fact that my computer is running as a 
BackUp Domain Controller means that it's also a DHCP backup
for our DHCP Server OR  I have to tell the DHCP Server which is  
our main Domain Server that my computer will be a DHCP Backup 
Server?

If I have to specify my computer as a DHCP Backup server, 
Where would I do that? in my computer or at the DHCP Server 
site?

Thanks in advance,
