Am I going about this the correct way?

I have a 2003 server set up as a routing and remote access server. I have another 2003 set up as a DNS and DHCP server.

When my clients log in I have it set up so that when they request something on the internet, the RAS server automatically dials the internet connection. I noticed that when my 2003 DNS/DHCP server tried accessing the internet, it did it just fine. The server has a static IP address with the gateway portion pointed to the RAS server's IP.

When my DCHP enabled clients come on, they get their IP and subnets assigned, and when they try to access the internet the RAS server dials but the clients are unable to access the internet. My deduction is that the when the clients obtain DHCP/DNS info the gateway isn't being handed out, which when I check there is no gateway.

So, my question is, is it as simple as going into the DHCP scope options, selecting 'router', and entering the IP address of the RAS server? What happens when I throw a Cisco router in the mix- I simply add an additonal IP for the router in the same place?
