Hi, 

I do not configure a DHCP server. When my FreeBSD 6.0 is booting, there are 
several DHCPDISCOVERY messages, finally it shows no DHCPOFFER received. Do I 
need to configure a DHCP server myself? If I need a DHCP server? Where it 
should be? Now I only have one test machine, Ubuntu as the host OS, two VMs 
(both are FreeBSD 6.0) on this machine. I want this two VMs communicate with 
each other. 

Just go back to the DHCP stuff, when I use NAT mode, the guest OS FreeBSD 6.0 
could get DHCPOFFER successfully. Who is the DHCP server then?

When running dhclien em0, the results are similar to the DHCPDISCOVER results 
during booting. No DHCPOFFERS received. 


Thanks,
W.W.
