How can I add/configure option 95 in W2k3 DHCP options? I need to set the path to a LDAP server, and would like to do this for a particular scope, but a global option would work. I can't find any setting where I can enable this option, and I know other DHCP servers have this available (Unix, OSX, etc).

Thanks

The clients that will be using it will be Apple clients communicating with an OpenDirectory Server, and option95 specifies the path to the server.

Will the additional option conflict/harm other machines wanting just an IP address and typical DHCP option settings?

 
The TID that xmsre doesn't apply to 2003 server. I tried the suggestions, but 2003 handles "netsh" differently?

Is there a way to add additional options to microsoft's DHCP server?
 
In the DHCP manager snapin, right click on the dhcp server and select "Set Predefined Options...". You can add it there, but you'll need to figure out what the data type is. I'm guessing a string.
