Hi, the file you need to modify is /etc/dhclient.conf. for parameters see dhclient.conf(5) normally this file is empty, but you can insert global or per interface require lines for informations the DHCP server has to submit to the client that the IP is acceptable. you can also insert global or per interface lines for informations you want to get from the DHCP server if available but you don't care if the DHCP server gives you nothing on these options and the IP address is accepted. hope that helps joerg - -- The beginning is the most important part of the work. -Plato -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFCaMs2SPOsGF+KA+MRAqq4AJ95xhwr4lCKylNi1R2mfBgvtHMkoQCgojT1 SefND9ihSVSrSCKq+0n6wFs= =3VLp -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
