>which uses DHCP
probably not, unless your ISP gives you an "infinite" lease on the
ip. (btw, we've just done this on a LAN with MS DHCP, converted them
from variable lease to infinite lease so we can track each user's
traffic volume/sites/DNS queries by ip.)
It's probably do-able with qualifications (aka "if's, and's and
but's" ) but you being a self-categorized "newbe", I'd recommend
against it. Try to get fixed ip, it'll be much much easier.
>and also how to setup DNS with cable?
DNS is usually done with static ip's for public mail servers. DNS
very easy to setup with help here in this list, ah hem. Are you
running your own DNS or is your access provider running it?
