Yes. It is easy when you have two separate nics. In each of the conf
files, explicitly state which nic is to be used.

Subject: dhcpd and dhclient concurrently?



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.

Thanks,
MikeC
