hi
i am compleatly stumped..
I am trying to set up my debian woody box to collect the internet on
eth0 via dhcp then forward it to anyone connected to my hub on eth1
also via dhcp..
I have read every doc /howto/minihowto i can find and followed every
list of instructions.. and basicly i can connect to the net fine.. if
ppl set me as there gateway masq works a charm but dhcp is as dead as
a doornail between me and the internel net .. it does precisly zip..
I apt-got dhcp
then configured /etc/dhcpd.conf
then edited /etc/init.d/dhcp (change the run thing to 1 as specified)
then ran dhcpd eth1 to test it.. i also tried it from /etc/init.d/dhcp
nothing.. no pc's could connect or even get an ip.. i tried dhcp -d
-f as specified in the docs.. nothing.. ps ax revels no existance of
dhcp etc..
I also added route add 255.255.255.255 dev eth1 for picky clients
also as specified.
so 2 Q a) what have i forgotten/missed/stuffedup
and b) why are there 3 programs. dhcpd , dhcpd-2.0.x and dhcpd-2.2.x
vila:/home/salmona# cat /etc/dhcpd.conf
subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0
{

option ip-forwarding on;
option broadcast-address 192.168.1.255;
option netmask 255.255.255.0;
}
