This certainly seems to match with what i'm seeing - if you take a look
at the routing tables in my original mail, they seem to describe exactly
what you are talking about.

If i was to push addresses in the 10.8.0.0/24 range, i'd run into
problems for windows clients, which i understand require a /30 subnet
mask. Again, if i understand it, this would effectively mean that if
10.8.0.1 is the only ip address of the router, then i could only push
10.8.0.2 as a client address.

What i'd like is a setup whereby i can assign specific ip addresses to
users, most of which will be windows users. Clearly, my first attempt to
do this was wrong - can you let me know how it should be done, assuming
it can? If it can't then i'll just use the standard dhcp solution, but
i'm hoping that's not the case.

Thanks,

John
