Hi,
Please bear with my non-understanding
Trying to get dhcp to work in fc6, I would need a client right? In fc3,
lookup worked out of the box; but in my fc6 install I didn't have the
rpm installed.
Now that I do, I need a dhcpd.conf
If I don't to do a dhcp as specified in the /usr/sbin/system-config-
services gui, please let me know.
If I do need one, can I just ask a few questions.
# Sample dhcpd.conf
# option definitions common to all supported networks...
#option domain-name "linuxhelp.ca";
??I don't have a domain on this box so no need I think
# Your name servers. You can normally find these in
# your /etc/resolv.conf file. These will be distributed to all DHCP
# clients.
option domain-name-servers 10.1.1.1, 65.39.196.215, 65.39.192.130;
?? what is 10.1.1.1???? I have two entries 210.230.70.2 210.230.70.3 plus a name "rosenet.ne.jp"
??does rosenet.ne.jp translate into a number somehow using a command like host or um forgot the other reverse lookup
default-lease-time 600;
max-lease-time 7200;
??sure fine, copy and paste - values ok?
# If this DHCP server is the official DHCP server for the local
# network, the authoritative directive should be uncommented.
authoritative;
??for the local network of one box yes. no?
# Configuration for an internal subnet.
subnet 10.1.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 10.1.1.2 10.1.1.25;
option domain-name-servers 10.1.1.1, 65.39.196.215, 65.39.192.130;
option domain-name "linuxhelp.ca";
option routers 10.1.1.1;
option broadcast-address 10.1.1.255;
default-lease-time 600;
max-lease-time 7200;
}
?? um internal subnet. again this is just one box. Do I need to configure this. Can I get the info from my fc3 box running dhcp fine somehow?
My fc3 dchp.conf file is in a totally different place and seems vastly different:
