Hi Yan,<br><br>Running Windows guests is supported, and I don't see any reason why it wouldn't be able to get the IP from your external DHCP server.<br><br>You can even use the contextualization mechanism: the extra CDROM is mounted, and the IP can be inferred from the IP. Unfortunately we don't provide network contextualization scripts for Windows.<br>

Hi All<br>
<br>
Can anyone tell me wether one support Windows guest with a host on a DHCP network? We are not up to the level to control the DHCP server for the whole network (which means we can't define the MAC/IP association by FIXED networking), the host will be assigned an IP automatically. Is it possible to make the Windows guest to get IP leased from the DHCP server as well?<br>
<br>
Many thanks<br>
Yan<br>
<br>
