Date: Wed, 24 Nov 1999 11:15:04 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2448.0) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I am running dhclient to connect to the net via my cable modem as they require. I run ipfw/natd on this machine to allow local systems outside access. I now want to run dhcpd for the subnets on local interfaces other than the one connecting to the cable modem. I started by reading the crab book. It states that all physically connected subnets must have a subnet entry in order for dhcpd to run. Since the connection to the cable modem doesn't know its subnet until run time I'm at a loss as to what to do. Is it even possible to learn the upstream address dynamically and be a dhcp server for downstream devices at the same time? I'm running FreeBSD-3.3-Release.
