I have tried Webmin, and manged to configure the server but it just doesn't seem to want to run. Installed DHCP via. emerge dhcp followed by an emerge dhcpd. I haven't seen any errors (but that could be because I don't know where to look!) but the machine just doesn't seem to want to give out addresses at all. Its almost as though the machine is blocking the DHCP requests before they get to the DHCP server daemon. > On 24 Jun 2003 20:35:57 +1200 > Jamie Dobbs <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > I've been trying to set up one of my Gentoo boxes as a DHCP server, but > > I am not having a lot of success.

Your clients know witch DHCP server to use?

Re: [gentoo-user] Setting up a DHCP Server
Further testing has shown that the DHCP server appears to give out an
initial address but will ignore further requests for IPs. Its almost as
if it will work once after a reboot and then won't give out any further
addresses.
Below is a copy of the /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf from the machine in
question.
option domain-name-servers 203.96.152.4 , 203.96.152.12;
option routers 192.168.1.1;
ddns-update-style none;
ddns-updates off;
subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.1.50 192.168.1.200;
}
host Gir {
option domain-name-servers 203.96.152.4 , 203.96.152.12;
option routers 192.168.1.1;
hardware ethernet 00:05:1C:0C:1B:95;
fixed-address 192.168.1.100;
}
Perhaps this can shed light on the problem?

Re: [gentoo-user] Setting up a DHCP Server
Make sure you have entered the listening interface in /etc/conf.d/dhcpd
and also if I remember correctly, Socket Filtering must be enabled in
kernel configuration
