Okay, my dhcp client web page is pretty much done... http://daevid.com/examples/dhcp/ The .tgz file is linked at the bottom if you want it.
This was also an extreme amount of work just to simply see the active leases and 'client-hostname' associated with an IP/MAC?! Seems to me there should have been a tool included with dhcpd that does this at the command line. *sigh* Much thanks to Lars Torben Wilson for the dhcpd.leases parser. --------- What I don't understand is why my dhcpd.leases file doesn't have an entry for my notebook (10.10.10.69) yet I specifically put this entry in /etc/dhcpd.conf host orinoco.daevid.com { hardware ethernet 00:02:2D:3C:7C:FB; fixed-address 10.10.10.69; } So I do get assigned the IP and everything works from a network standpoint, but why doesn't the /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases file have an entry that should look something like: lease 10.10.10.69 { starts 1 2003/06/23 08:40:11; ends 1 2003/06/23 08:50:11; binding state active; next binding state free; hardware ethernet 00:02:2D:3C:7C:FB; client-hostname "locutus"; } Yet I don't. :( In fact, it seems that ANY devices that I assign an IP using the MAC (such as TiVo, Replay, other servers), don't have entries in the dhcpd.leases file?! Why is that? Is this a bug or by design?
