Having just tried to get dhcp to work in SuSe 7.3, I can see why you ask. Does PPP have its own dhcp client, people seem to get that to work all right? In 7.3, dhcpcd does not like the dhcp server it has to use, and dhcpclient fails to install the allocated gateway. A rather kludgy insertion of all likely gateways into the routing table is my way round! However, although I tried several possible routes added with no effect, it doesn't change the fact that routing from my SuSE 8 box to the Internet works with the dhcp-allocated route, and I don't see how I can add a route for the benefit of kernel IP forwarding when all it really needs to know is which device to forward to. If I am wrong, I shall be grateful for advice on how to do it. -- Roger Hayter _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list - http://linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Archives,and Digests are located at the above URL.
