Ok..speaking of DHCP anyone out there know how to hack Apache Web Server so
that when on a DHCP network where there is no DNS entry, Apache will still
start up? If you don't know what i'm talking about i'm not surprised, if
you do you've probably fixed it already..:)
Anyway, when I try to start httpd, I get the "can't lookup host name" or
something like that. Basicaly, since I don't have a set IP, I can't start
Apache..anyone know of a way to do it? I'm sort of down to finding out
what my current IP is and setting my system name in the hosts table to the
current DHCP IP address...by the way...how do I find out what my current IP
is?

Thanks for the note on virtual consoles. I looked at the verbose console,
and the ethernet card is working. Here is the problem now.
I type in the ftp site name and the path, and it says "I cannot log into
machine: Unable to lookup FTP server host name." It does not even seem to
try. I'm trying to get to sunsite.unc.edu. Typing in the ip address gives
a similar error. I'm on a DHCP network, and eth0 was able to get an ip
address, net mask, etc.
Question 1:Why can't it get out?
Question2: What would the correct path be to sunsite to do the FTP install?
Thanks,
Travis
