how do I configure DHCP support for 2 subnets? I know about adding more scopes, question is would other computers from the other subnet able to broadcast request? How?
Regarding scope options. If I provide 003 Router with an IP does it mean the clients will be configured to use it as default gateway? How about H-node, what does it do. Im totally new with DHCP configuration pls help. thanks in advance.

Read this:

Basically, if both subnets are on the same segment, you'll need to use a superscope so the DHCP won't send a NAK back. If the different subnets are on different segments, you'll configure a relay or a dhcp helper ip on the router to route the request to the dhcp server. In this case, multiple scopes without a superscope are fine.“For success, attitude is equally as important as ability.” - Harry F. Banks -

And yes, 003 is for the default gateway.
H-node is a WINS setting. This site does a good job of explaining the differences: http://www.avdf.com/apr98/art_ot001.html
