DHCP not working

[Dave McDuell]

When I try to set up DHCP role, my clients don't find the
DHCP server. I have a suspicion this is because I have 2
network cards (internal and external IP's). The IP which
appears next to my server name in the dhcp configuration
screen always shows the external IP so I think it is
setting up DHCP on the external network, not where I want
it. What am I missing ??

You need to bind DHCP only to the internal adapter. In the DHCP console,
right click the Server and select Properties - binding can be configured on
the Advanced tab - See:

make also sure that the Internal card is the FIRST one
