Oh, no, dhcpd is the server software. That won't work at all, unless you are on contract with @home to provide this service:^) In fact, you might be handing out addresses to @home customers who wonder why it doesn't work. What they don't tell you about @home is that they use static ip addresses

Add the following line to the bottom of /etc/dhclient.conf... interface "eth0" {} Modifying the configuration file (/etc/dhclient.conf) is a much cleaner solution than modifying the init-script (/etc/init.d/dhcp-client). Enjoy! Bryan On 25-Jan-2000 Sean 'Shaleh' Perry wrote: > > On 25-Jan-2
