Jerry Feldman wrote in a message to Mike Bilow: JF> In a meeting last year, a senior executive from Microsoft JF> claimed that Microsoft developed the DHCP protocol. Seriously?! That's rather Orwellian, even for Microsoft. RFC1541 actually takes pains to credit prior work such as RARP and BOOTP, and prior workers at MIT and Sun. Microsoft is never mentioned. >From a technical standpoint, DHCP is a strict superset of BOOTP. -- Mike
