DHCP4WHS

The first and only DHCP server (as far as I can tell) written in C# originally began out of boredom over lunch one day at work in late 2005, when I wanted more control over DHCP in my house than my off the shelf router would provide, without having to run a stand alone box to run Windows Server or Linux.

With the announcement of the Windows Home Server Code2Fame challenge I got serious about turning it from it's original state of a simple set of classes only barley capable of parsing DHCP messages into a fully fledged server that has been the only used DHCP server in my home for many months.

Today it offers an extremely simple to use interface to allow a user to setup reservations for their home and view and manage existing address leases, all from the Windows Home Server Console.
