dhcp.conf relay howto?

[Edwin Whitelaw]

My dhcp server has multiple subnets on eth1 and it's correctly 
configured using shared-network for the locally attached clients.  If 
the remote dhcrelay host also comes in on eth1, should the subnet 
declaration for the remote network also go inside the shared-network?

Thx,

Edwin
