Any suggestions here ? dhclient requires the CONFIG_FILTER and CONFIG_PACKET options in the kernel to be set. I think the easiest thing is to edit the .config file From your kernel sources, and find those options. They're probably commented out, so uncomment them, and set them both to "y". (Or "m" to compile them as modules, but then you'll have to make sure the modules are loaded.) Then you'll have to recompile. You could also try using pump instead of dhclient, which doesn't require those options, but some people (myself included) have had issues with pump not working properly with certain servers. -- Hubert Chan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - http://www.uhoreg.ca/ PGP/GnuPG key: 1024D/124B61FA Fingerprint: 96C5 012F 5F74 A5F7 1FF7 5291 AF29 C719 124B 61FA Key available at wwwkeys.pgp.net.
