RE: DNS Search Suffixes option ?
*** From dhcp-server -- To unsubscribe, see the end of this message. *** Best I've found is this simple reghack that runs in the login script (this is only on win9x clients): REGEDIT4 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\MSTCP] "EnableDNS"="1" "HostName"="host" "Domain"="" "SearchList"="primary.com,secondary.com,tertiary.com" "NameServer"="" This lets me give 3 (or more) domains, while still pulling the IP address for the nameserver from DHCP. Of course, it has a glitch or two, i.e. a user has to click on 'OK' becase they get a dialog box stating "domain.reg has been sucessfully entered into the registry", and it's really only good for machines that are going to remain on a desktop because if the machine wanders to yet another domain (ISP at home if a laptop) and pulls DHCP, the domain it gets doesn't seem to override the search order, so no resolution. But for me, where I had hundreds of machines that were never going to leave the building, this worked great. Reboot them, log them into the domain once, and they're done. Then I turned off the reghack in the login script and just run it manually from a share for any new builds that go out to the floor. Maybe it'll help in your case, maybe not.

RE: DNS Search Suffixes option ?
*** From dhcp-server -- To unsubscribe, see the end of this message. *** By the way, if anyone has a smoother, even less intrusive way to do this reghack (it *IS* far faster than doing it manually), I'd be curious to learn it :) -Original Message- From: Rolen, Mark E.

Can't compile 3.0 anything...
*** From dhcp-server -- To unsubscribe, see the end of this message. *** I have tried several different 3.0 snapshots, and can't get a successful compile on my system. I'm running a completely stock suse 5.2 install on kernel 2.0.36. The compile seems to start out fine, but I get killed soon after make gets into the sserver directory (you can tell by my techy lingo that I'm a power user, no? : ) ). Anyhow, the problem seems to begin here: cc -o dhcpd dhcpd.o dhcp.o bootp.o confpars.o db.o class.o failover.o ../common/libdhcp.a ../common/libdhcp.a(socket.o): In function 'if_register_socket': /tmp/dhcp-3.0.alpha-19990424/common/socket.c:124: undefined reference to 'error' make[1]: *** [dhcpd] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/dhcp-3.0-alpha-19990424/server' make: *** [all] Error 1 help?

RE: dhcpd.leases not being updated
*** From dhcp-server -- To unsubscribe, see the end of this message. *** the dhcpd.leases file has been moved to /var/state/dhcp... mark -Original Message- From: Ding-Hou Lee [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, April 23, 1999 12:43 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: dhcpd.leases not being updated *** From dhcp-server -- To unsubscribe, see the end of this message. *** Hi, I'm testing ISC dhcpd version 3 (dhcp-3_0-alpha-19990330_tar.gz), and everything works fine. The only problem is that I don't see the dhcpd.leases file that contains lease information. I know for version 2, it's in /etc. Thus I did create a /etc/dhcpd.leases by using the touch command. However, that file was never updated. The transaction log in /var/log/messages functions as it should and IP's are assigned as well. Any ideas? Thanks!
