I am trying to configure a Win2k server as a router. Ihave managed to get it
to work with static ip addresses. The question is how would I do this if
DHCP is being used for the side that connects to the WAN? Do static IP
addressed need to be used?

No, shouldn't be ....just on the internal NIC itself.

Frankly, though, given how inexpensive hardware router/gateway/firewall
appliances are these days, I'd definitely go that route instead.
 
thank you ever so mucho for the information. I was trying to get my boss to
do that in the beginning figuring it would save me some headaches. She has
now conceded LOL
