I would like to know how to open the "dhcp.mdb" file that is created when
you setup a DHCP server. Are there any utilities that will allow me to
view/print this very usable information? I have searched everywhere I know
of and have found nothing that address this problem. Any help with this and
I will be in debt for the rest of my life... well maybe at least 45 minutes.

There is a utility on the NT Server Resource Kit called dhcpcmd.exe. It gives
you alot of information but specifically it will give you the IP address, the
mac address and the machine name. It allows you to get at the information in
the dhcp database. The command syntax is as follows:

dhcpcmd <server ip address> <command> [<command parameters>].
Check the dhcpcmd.txt file for further information on additional parameters. We
use it in a batch file and run it once a week (Our DHCP leases are 30 days) to
identify all the clients and gather the information for troubleshooting and
identifying computers. You can run it against any DHCP server on the local LAN
or across a WAN
