I have a Fedora machine I'm using as a home server, without a keyboardor monitor. I'd like to set it up such that upon rebooting it firstchecks to see if there is a DHCP server on the network, and if so, grabsan ip address from it. But if there isn't one, it assigns itself astatic address. Is this doable?


Thank you.
