I recently set up a computer to act as a Masq box for a cable modem.

Eth0 connects to the local lan with a reserved ip (192.168.1.1) while eth1
obtains it's configuration information via Redhat/Mandrake's dhcp client
software.

I use dhcpd on the Eth0 interface to dole out IP's to a few local winblows
systems.

During bootup, dhcpd fails to initialize because it complains about
configuration information (in /etc/dhcpd.conf) for the eth1 subnet...

If I init eth1 in /etc/rc.local instead, it works (since dhcpd is already up
by the time rc.local is run).. but I have the following problem... in all
cases...

That is, the dhcpd.leases file is not getting updated with the information
about the newly connected hosts on eth0, even though dhcpd is correctly
assigning IP's.

As a result the DNS configuration also does not get updated by cron.

Does anyone have any ideas about how to fix this?

Thanks.
