Thanks Lynn. I'm not at my computer right now so I will have to get back to you with this. Regarding uDHCP, you have two packages available at your site, one for Dachstein and another for the rest. Should I be using the Dachstein package, given that Bering evolved from Dachstein, or the other one?
Thanks again.

My package includes both the server and client rolled into a single binary saving some extra space. I believe the other one is only the server. > 2.

Does Shorewall run before DHClient? Your interfaces should come up, then the dhcp client is run, then Shorewall. Check the "RCLINKS=" parameter in dhclient and Shorewall /etc/init.d/ scripts.. dhclient should have a lower number. What do the logs say happens during the initial attempt? > 3.

The notable exception to this is proxy-arp. -- ~Lynn Avants Linux Embedded Firewall Project developer http://leaf.sourceforge.net ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld =omething 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html
