Greetings, I have setup a dhcp server for my NFS distribution server, (same machine) I would like the dhcp server to automatically assign the leases with a host name, the mac addresses will not be the same ever so I do not want to link it to the mac addresses. I have read the documentation from TLDP but they only give very complicated setups as examples and I am new to this so I don't even know what the docs are trying to accomplish in some of these examples. could some please assist me here. This is what I am trying to accomplish. On an internal network without any internet connection for now, A dhcp server to assign addresses from 192.168.10.1 - 120 a hostname for each address. like this 192.168.10.1 - station1 192.168.10.2 - station2 192.168.10.3 - station3 192.168.10.4 - station4 and so on This should stop the installation looking for a NIS server right? then then the kickstart file should be automatically sent to the clients I have added the following line to the dhcp.conf file filename "/home/distro/Fedora1/" where my kickstart file resides. The outcome is a linux distribution server. If anyone can help here it would be greatly appreciated. -- ****************************************************************** Chadley Wilson Soon 2 B RHCE Linux Rocks Welcome to my world.
