I need some details. This entire thing now works only on the WLAN interface right? Is the LAN completely out of the picture? So, the backend itself gets broadened? Maybe subnetted, depending on the DHCP server(s). Secondly, without the dnsmasq package, can we get the native udhcpd to work with the OLSR interface? I think we can.. What's the OLSR interface that shows up with ifconfig? It is possible, I think, to manually configure the DHCP server to listen on the OLSR interface. The problem, I think, wasn't with the missing package, but with the fact that we had DHCP running on the WLAN interface instead of the OLSR interface. The native DHCP should work perfectly fine if I'm right... unless dnsmasq has some features I don't know about.. -- ---------------------------------------- Mrugesh Karnik GPG Key 0xBA6F1DA8 Public key on http://wwwkeys.pgp.net ----------------------------------------
