Which DHCP Client OS Support DHCP Option 119 Domain Suffix Search?
I'm constraining my search to Microsoft OS's tonight, for lack of energy. >smile<
Finding a concise list of the DHCP options supported by various Microsoft operating systems has proven to be difficult. The following article shows as being revised in 2006, and references Windows XP in the article text, but claims to only apply up to Windows NT 4.0.

Based on this article, it doesn't appear that any version of Windows referenced in that article supports option 119. I'm seeing postings that seem to indicate that Windows Server 2003 and 2008 do not support option 119, either.
This article indicates that DHCP option 119 doesn't work on Windows 2000 - Windows Server 2003:

I'll try my Windows 7-based laptop computer in a moment and drop an edit in here with my findings.
