Hi,
is there a way to have DHCP-Servers on two machines serve the same
Network??
Now, that we moved our Clients to DHCP I feel a bit bad about the fact
that, when the Server crashes (be it a hard- or software-Problem) nobody
will be able to work until we install a second machine...
I think of something like "Inter DHCP-Protocol" that the tweo (or even
more) machines use to exchange the Information on used leases so both
have the same "dhcpd.leases" file at all times; maybe even ex�change the
dhcpd.conf in case it's being changed on one machine. Then, in case one
server fails the second will take over all the clients -- until the
other server becomes available again (then, the first step for the two
should be the exchange of the information of used leases)...
Is there such a solution available??? I think just placing two DHCP
Servers on the same Network with the same address-ranges will for sure
cause trouble -- and we don't have that many spare addresses that we
migth just take the addresses into two ranges and then have one server
for each range :-(((
Thanx,
_ralf_
