Great! Wondered where you've been. :-) How's the little one? : Hang on - you got a basestation? What does it plug into, the link to your ISP : or one of your ethernet ports on the server? Or does the dhcp server connect : through the basestation too? We got a base station. It has both a modem serial jack and an ethernet jack. My network has a wireless hub (with wired jacks as well, of course) connected to my desktop box. : I'm a little confused because the BS will have its own DHCP server if I remember : right. Really? Okay, I didn't know that. I was looking at the preferences page on the apple and trying to figure out how to set up TCP/IP. I was under the assumption the BS was just another hub, and I had to assign it an address. Since you got me going with DHCPD, I tried that, but it didn't work. Are you suggesting all I need to do is patch the BS to my hub and set the laptop to get the DHCP address itself? If so, how do I get my desktop box to recognize the BS? jm -- My other computer is your Windows box. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
