Does anyone use two DHCP servers on the same subnet? Due to wiring in
my house I can't run my Sunrays on an isolated subnet.
I rather not rely on the Sunray Server's dhcpd for my normal boxes, I
need DDNS and I need all my "normal" boxes to work when I take my Sunray
Server to demonstrations.
I rather not rely on my OpenWRT to service the SunRays, because when I
take my Sunrays for demonstration... it does not go with me. (it needs
to stay home with my normal boxes)... Also my OpenWRT uses dnsmasq which
I doubt has the flexibility that Sunrays need.
Maybe I need to post to the ISC dhcp mailing list, but I thought someone
here would have already had a similar problem.
Thanks,
Scott Serr

Just for completeness - be sure you've explored the alternatives
which allow you to configure everything in a .parms file
and use DNS, or the TFTP server DHCP option. Both of these
options remove the need to configure *any* special DHCP
for Sun Ray: ISC, Sun or otherwise.

I suppose I should just take the time to convert my Solaris DHCP
over to ISC
and be done with it. I'd just hate having to go over everything
everytime I
upgrade Sun Ray software.
It's easy to set ISC dhcpd up just once -- a lot of people already
have it running and just need to augment their configuration with Sun
Ray options. It doesn't require reconfiguration every time you
install or upgrade the Sun Ray server software.
If you're operating on a shared LAN segment you only need to enable
LAN connections, configuring the Sun DHCP server isn't a mandatory
SRS installation/upgrade step...
Just make sure LAN connections are on (utadm -L on), push the latest
firmware into /tftpboot (utfwadm -A -V -a), update the version string
in your ISC configuration (for which there are plenty of examples on
the web) and it should all be fine.
(Disclaimer: The above works for me both at home and on the campus
network of one of my employers. Your mileage will most probably vary
considerably.)
