I checked for the dhcpd pid. There was none. Nothing showed with ps ax either. ifconfig showed only the single ethernet card and lo and displayed nothing out of the ordinary. The dhcpd.conf file was unchanged from it's initial setup (and was checked for correctness too - it was/is ok). As I said before ... totally baffled! Something does appear to be going on with this server though. We've got what appear to be sharing violations with Samba shares that shouldn't be occuring. I haven't been back on location yet so I don't know for sure. That's for later this afternoon. -- Mike Rambo [EMAIL PROTECTED]
