Re: [cobalt-users] [Cache RaQ4] dhcp server daemon

[AM <list_subscriber@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
Thanks for the quick reply, actually since the rpm is not on the CD and 
I couldnt find a MIPs compiled RPM for dhcp I copied all the files on 
the CD (which strangely enuff was there) to the system on by one. The 
files being:

/etc/dhcpd.conf
/usr/sbin/dhcpd (was not there origianlly)
/usr/sbin/dhcpd-2.2.x (the second one needs it)

/var/dhcp/dhcpd.leases

Now in my set up the inside line of the RaQ is hooked up t o a switch 
(to which my boxes on the lan are hooked up to), the IP of the inside 
line is 192.168.1.1 (eth0)

When I do a /etc/rc.d/init.d/dhcpd start eth0

I get:

[root@raptor init.d]# dhcpd start eth0

Please contribute if you find this software useful.
For info, please visit http://www.isc.org/dhcp-contrib.html

No subnet declaration for eth0 (192.168.1.1).
Please write a subnet declaration for the network segment to
which interface eth0 is attached.
exiting.

Now I have no idea how to "write a subnet declaration for the network 
segment to
which interface eth0 is attached." I looked in the manual and coudlnt 
find anything.

Any idea what that means???

Also all the daemons that are running httpd, telnetd, dnsd..... etc are 
running out of /usr/raptor/bin. Why?? Is there a init file to which I 
could just add a line referencing a copy of dhcpd in /usr/raptor/bin??

TIA
AM
