Hi I have a Debian 2.6.18-4-686 running with KDE 3.5.5. I have three questions.
1) When I start the system, my IP address is 192.168.0.72. If I make a renew of ip address with dhclient, my IP address change 192.168.0.20. If I change again, my IP address stay at 192.168.0.20. Is that possible that at the startup of the computer, the network component just assign a choosen IP without asking the DNS ? 2) I captured the frames with Wireshark (during the renewal of IP address) and the DHCP server send me a new address with a domain name. Is there anyway to access this domain name ? 3) The command hostname --fqdn returns me : localhost.localdomain. Is that linked with the fact that I'm on a local network ? It seem that yes, but I'm sure. How can I change the fqdn ? Thanks. Johan
