IMHO It's not really a good idea to have important servers on a dynamic internal IP, what does it achieve? Look at the manual for dhcpd and you will see that you can have IP addresses fixed by the MAC address of the NIC, best of both worlds because you can use the DHCP server to send name server settings but the phones can always find * by IP. Otherwise welcome to the world of a full DNS server that allows dynamic updates. -- Dave Cotton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
