Hello! We have a DHCP server listening on subnet 192.168.42.0. (On the server with address 192.168.42.1) One of the addresses , lets say 192.168.42.11 , we plan to use as a LTSP server for thin clients. So we installed the second network interface card with the address 192.168.0.254 and our server (192.168.42.11) now connects to the internet via interface 192.168.42.0 segment , and the thin clients are connected to to this server via subnet 192.168..0.0. In Ltsp server there is a DHCP server which is listening on subnet 192.168.0.0. Will these two DHCPs generate a conflict? Thanks!

And unless your LTSP server is forwarding DHCP requests between networks, they won't even see each other's traffic. Bill
