You do have to be running their PC/TCP OnNet WinSock stack for it to work, though. We've done some testing with it and found it mildly flakey but it works. FTP Software sales: 800-282-4387 There's also the WIDE DHCP server & client implementation. It's source for a DHCP server and client. I got the client to compile, but ran into some problems with the server. (My FreeBSD is down while I try to get 2.0.5R to install so I haven't done much else with WIDE.)
