DHCP Backup

[lyric0n]

We used Windows 2000 Server and Windows 2003 Server for our DHCP servers and would like to have a script go through and pull the database back to a central computer for backup everynight. We'd like to use the command:
"netsh dhcp Server 127.0.0.1 export 127.0.0.1.db all"
But it does not allow for remote backups, is there anything similar but that will allow us to execute the commands remotely?

Thanks,
Chris

Hi,

Maybe it's an idea to create a dump of the Dhcp database locally on the system and only execute a copy command remotely to copy the database to your central location.

another option is using remote command service from microsoft. It installs as a service on the server. it makes it possible to remotely execute commands on the server. check the link below.
