Thank you for replying. This helped a lot! Now I have my DHCP server running and the clients are getting their IP addresses. One other question is, how do you configure the DHCP Server running on eth1, to serve clients with multiple interfaces? For example, all my clients have 2 interfaces (eth0 and eth1). I can configure eth0 to get the address from the DHCP server. How do you tell the DHCP server to give a different subnet address to the dhclient request for eth1? Thank you once again. -- Subba Rao [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
