Steven,
Is there a way for just the DHCPD to make the updates? That way, as it
hands out the IP addresses, it updates the DNS. MetaIP in the Windows world
does this and it works quite well. Yes, you're right, my test machine was a
W2K workstation. I'll look at the docs you pointed me to more. I really
would like it though, if the DHCP daemon could just notify the DNS daemon of
the update.
