You are right Charles, it is included on the floppy. After inspecting syslinux.cfg, it is not loaded. Firing up EditPadLite...
But, as far as I know netstat is not available on Bering.

Two suggestions: 1) It looks like bering comes with my dhcpd package, but it's not loaded by default. Make sure the dhcpd package is loaded (listed in the LRP= part of the kernel command line in syslinux.cfg). 2) If your /var partition fills up, dhcpd will die when it tries to update the leases file. Make sure you have enough free space on your ramdisk, and that dhcpd is still running (assuming it got loaded in the first place). You can verify dhcpd is listening for connections by running "netstat -an". You should see a line like the following: udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:67 0.0.0.0:* which indicates dhcpd is listening for clients on UDP port 67. You can also run "ps ax", and look for dhcpd in the process list. Once you've verified dhcpd is running, configuration is just like Dachstein if you need to change the interfaces dhcpd listens to. The main configuration file is /etc/dhcpd.conf, and you can specify particular interfaces to listen to in /etc/init.d/dhcpd (via the ifs variable) just like in Dachstein. -- Charles Steinkuehler [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Oracle 10g Get certified on the hottest thing ever to hit the market...
