Yes, The DHCP server will check the IP address of the
interface on which you have configured the IP Helper
address command. So make pools on the DHCP server
accordingly. eg: Router's interface 192.168.1.1/16
Server' pool 192.168.0.1-192.168.255.254 wil work.

Actually, you'll want to make the pools only as big as the subnet, unless
you know some trick I don't Muhammed. Each pool will need a default gateway
assigned as part of the scope, and unless you're doing a /16 range for
192.168/16, then you'll want a pool for each 192.168/24 network.

I happen to be a ccnp and mcse. I get how ip helper-address works. Also
work with microsoft dhcp servers.
How do you setup a scope for a remote subnet, and how does the dhcp server
know how to hand out the correct ip leases for a non-connected subnet?
Does the dhcp server look at the source
Yup, you got it. Just set up the extra scope(s) for the subnet(s) you have
the ip helper-address enabled port(s) on. The DHCP server sees the source
address (or perhaps network address/mask, I'm not sure the down and dirty
details), and sends an appropriate DHCP address from the scope that fits

Here's a fun link explaining ip helper:

Actually, the IP helper command is placed on the
interface that is recieving the broadcasts. Now you
have to decide which router is supposed to recieve the
broadcasts. But in usual case, Clients usually try to
communcate with the PDC for authentication and other
stuffs. So, i think it would work
I assume when you say PDC, you are referring to an NT server PDC. I must
also assume you have TCP/IP installed on all NT servers needing to
communicate to each other. If so, then the ip-helper command is of no use.
It merely forwards bootp and DHCP requests. If you need a PDC and a BDC to
