    Sorry, this is cross-post from "Using the Open Specifications", but I'm not sure that I've used right place

    But anyway...
    There is a problem with how MS DHCP server handles option 55 specified by client in offer/request packets. One of my dhcp clients sends discover/offer with a number of required options in value of option 55 (see http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1533.html,
    9.6. Parameter Request List). DHCP server responds with exactly requested option but without some witch were not requested. That client actually wanted to receive some more together with requested ones (and rfc say that option 55 do not set limit on what should be returned but specify order of option which should be used in response). So I'm looking for any way to override that behavour and make dhcp server respond with some more options together with specified ones, actually a way to override that list specified by client. So if there are any ideas on how to achive that, please give a clue...
