Evening Everyone:
I have a cable modem that I use for my Internet connection. My service is
with Media One here in Massachusetts. My connection is working just
fine. At boot-up, I have my system configured to use DHCP to get my IP
Address.
I'm currently working on my firewall, and one of the things I need to
allow through is my DHCP server. After the machine boots up, and
establishes an Internet connection, is there a file on my system that
tells me what DHCP server I'm talking to? I know resolv.conf shows the
addresses of the nameservers, and my ipchains script nicely parses this
information out and allows access to it, but I need to determine the DHCP
server, and any other ports I may need to leave open for it.
Thanks.
- Mike
