[WinMac] NT Server, Macs and DHCP

Any help is appreciated.
I'm trying to tie a Mac into an all-PC network running MS Small Business
Server (NT 4.0, SP4). I've bought the Mac-Windows integration book (which
mentions this but doesn't really explain how to configure the DHCP
server, which is why I bought it, frankly), checked the WWW, surfed
Micrdsoft's site, checked www.macwindows.com, etc, and can't find a
coherent procedure for getting this to work.
My NT Server is using Proxy server 2.0 and Exchange 5.5, and I've got the
latest version of Outlook for the Mac running on a Wallstreet 300 running
8.5.1. I cannot get the Mac to see the Exchange Server. I've tried BootP,
reserving an address on the Proxy Server and giving the Mac a client
address, a fixed IP, etc., and the Mac still comes up with the
169.xxx.xxx.xxx IP, which I understand is a temporary IP assigned by the
Mac itself and not the DHCP server.
When I look at the leases on the Proxy Server I see the Mac reserving a
lease, but there is still no HTTP access and no seeing the Exchange
Server via Outlook. How does one set up the TCP/IP Control Panel on the
Mac? Are the DNS setting for the ISP, or are they assigned internally by
NT. Is the router address the IP of the NIC on the NT Server?
Thanks.
