RE: Only static IPs works, DHCP hangs .....

[Michael Turner]

This is not a silly question at all because I do not know much about configuring DHCP. The answer to your question is none of them. The only thing that I did was click the DHCP button in linuxconf on the nic that needs to be hooked up to my ISP. I must now ask a few silly questions now.
1. Is that required if I am *not* running a DHCP Server?
2. I saw both of those on the internet in my search to find some answers, what do they do?

Thank you very much for answering.

Mike

silly question time, but what are you using?
Is it dhcpcd (and not dhcpd?)
How are you configuring it?
