I know this is a simple question, but after considering the issues that is
happening to my client, I was wondering... he has seven (7) PC's logging onto
the network at the same time.

I am wondering if perhaps this is the reason for his problems as to why the
network constantly crashes when accessing applications?

Or is it still simply the fact that a DHCP server has to be installed?

Are you running Small Business Server 2000
It should be running as the DHCP server
You can have a max of 50 users if you CALs for all of them

Go to SBS Admin console, right-hand side, about. That will tell you
the amount of licenses available for your server. SBS comes with 5
CALs, IIRC.
