Alright, but I would really like to discuss this further.

Not that I can see any harm from it. Try to correct the broadcast above. Maybe that will solve the problem already, although it's hard to understand how you fat clients can work with it. If the broadcast doesn't solve it, please post your /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf as well. Uwe -- Why do consumers keep buying products they will live to curse? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
