I am trying to set up dhcpd-3.0-alpha-19990412 on a Linux server
(kernel version 2.0.36) in such a way that it denies the notorious
Windows NT RAS requests, but I can't figure out the correct syntax
for the class declaration.
I started with the working configuration file of my trusty old
production server (dhcpd-2.0b1pl6 with "no RAS" patch on Solaris
2.4/Sparc - yes I know, way obsolete, but rock solid), commenting
out all the range statements in order to avoid lease conflicts
between the old server and the new one. I then added the lines:
--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------
class ras-clients {
match if substring (option dhcp-client-identifier, 0, 4) = "RAS ";
deny booting;
}
--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------
just before the single shared-network declaration enclosing all my
subnet declarations. (Yes, these do all run on the same wire.) This
earned me the error message:
--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------
arachne:/sbin/init.d/rc2.d # dhcpd -f -d eth0

However, "ras-clients" is supposed to _be_ the class name.
What am I doing wrong?
PS: I also encountered the "No subnet declaration for lo (0.0.0.0)." bug
before I inserted the class declaration, that's why I'm specifying the
Ethernet interface on the command line.
