1. DO NOT GIVE ME A WEBSITE FOR HOW TO SETUP DHCP
2. ACTUALLY READ EVERYTHING I HAVE SAID
3. I AM USING @HOME, THIS HAS A SPECIAL DHCP CONFIGURATION



My dhclient.conf file looks like this :

#Defaults
=20
interface "de0" {
send host-name "cr...";
}

My rc.conf file has these important lines in it :

ifconfig_de0=3D"DHCP"
hostname "cr..."


when i type in :
=20
# dhclient de0=20

it says :
=20
null not found
de0 not found

what is wrong here?

someone told me to make sure rc.conf has a network_interfaces=3D"de0 =
10," line

i have no idea what to do.

Please help
