Ah, but it's not that easy at all. # cat /etc/sysconfig/dhcpd # Command line options here DHCPDARGS=" eth1 " the process table does indeed show the running process as /usr/sbin/dhcpd eth1. >From /var/log/messages: Feb 9 00:42:00 elvis dhcpd: Listening on LPF/eth1/00:04:5a:68:61:31/x.y.z.0/24 Feb 9 00:42:00 elvis dhcpd: Sending on LPF/eth1/00:04:5a:68:61:31/x.y.z.0/24 This certainly suggests that it is only listening on the eth1 interface. However: # netstat -an |grep 67 udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:67 0.0.0.0:* Thus you can see the daemon still binds to all interfaces. # rpm -q dhcp dhcp-3.0-6 The same behavior was shown with all other versions of ISC dhcpd tested, including the standard 2.0pl5 that ships with RH 7.2. -- Jason Costomiris <>< | Technologist, geek, human. jcostom {at} jasons {dot} org | http://www.jasons.org/ Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum viditur.
