Next message: Harrington, Lee: "[LUNI] Telnet Troubles"
Hey all, I'm trying to ween my roomates off of static IPs and onto dhcp. I
still want their machines to have the same IP everytime, but I want dhcpd
to assign it to them. We're running a mixture of Macs, windows and linux
boxes. I know I could key their IP to their NIC's MAC address, but I'd
rather not do this since hardware gets shuffled around from time to time
for one reason to another. So this leaves me soley with the "hostname"
option that's so popular with the @Home service. Unfortunately I haven't
been able to get this to work with the one windows ME machine I tried to
move over to dhcp. I think my dhcpd.conf might be to blame.
My IP scheme is as follows:
172.22.10.1-172.22.10.99 "static" IPs assigned by dhcp
172.22.10.100-172.22.10.254 dynamic IPs assigned by dhcp
-----------------------------------/etc/dhcpd.conf-------------------
subnet 172.22.10.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
default-lease-time 604800;
max-lease-time 604800;
range 172.22.10.100 172.22.10.254;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option routers 172.22.10.1;
option domain-name-servers 172.22.10.1;
option domain-name "neokino.edu";
option broadcast-address 172.22.10.255;
host Athena {
fixed-address 172.22.10.2;
}
host JOHN {
fixed-address 172.22.10.15;
}
}
