Does anyone know how to reduce the DHCP client timeout?
I have an RH 7.1 DHCP client which takes 3 minutes to timeout at boot time when it
tries to bring up eth0 and eth0 is not connected to the network.
The client is a laptop and is quite often not connected to the network.
Thank you
Does anyone know how to get a DHCP client to send it's hostname to the DHCP server
when running RH 7.1 or RH 7.2?
In RH 8.0 and up the /etc/dhclient.conf file option 'send fqdn.fqdn host.domain.com'
can be used, but /etc/dhclient.conf is not supported in RH 7.1 or RH 7.2. (I imagine
Hi ,
I am doing a pilot project on my small LAN which I would later want to
implement for my cybercafe which has 50 Nodes connected on a 128Kbps

I need a suggestion what will be a better option a DHCP based setup or a
DC type of a set up?All my nodes are Windows 98 nodes.

i personally would go with NAT and set up my own DNS server, which does
caching for the internet and resolves the hostnames internally.
I use that on my LAN which is a mix between windows and unix and it works

Hi,
My suggestion is that you set up DHCP and DNS in your linuxbox along with iptables as
firewall. Use NAT for the clients with a granular rule base in iptables. Do not allow
SMTP, DNS etc through the firewall. I suggest that you set up outgoing rules for
defined traffic and deny by default
