I believe you can achieve the same effect in the advanced setup in the webui, but only if you go from dhcp off to dhcp on and click next, then set the static DNS instead of dynamic.
You're lucky the default domain is something sane like 'home'. Mine has a default domain of domain.actdsltmp. It can be changed the way you described, in /etc/udhcpd.conf, but doesn't persist across reboots. Any ideas? They should have at least given us ed or ex or sed. :( I see tftp on there, perhaps that could be used to not have to re-type the files all the time. /* Quoth Phillip Hellewell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> on Thu, 20 May 2004 at 00:26 -0600 in <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> */ > > Well, doesn't surprise me...
