I took some advice and looked at the ISC web site. While I was getting ready to pull the ISC version I looked at /usr/ports/net/ and found both isc-dhcp2 and isc-dhcp3 there. The directories appeared to be populated. I tried doing a make against isc-dhcp2 and I got the message: isc-dhcp-2.0.2 is forbidden: security hole found. I also tried isc-dhcp3 and I got: isc-dhcp3-3.0.b1.14 is forbidden: security hole found. Being a security kind of guy, I can understand why you would not want to put a buggy version on. :-) Should I use some of the instructions from Greg L.'s 3rd edition of The Complete FreeBSD but get the package from the ISC site? I would appreciate anything the 'gurus' have to say. I can't go much further without a DHCP server. Cheers... -- Try not. Do or do not. Is no try.--Yoda To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
