Bob has the right idea below. Two DHCP servers on one subnet are almost always a problem.
Probably the easiest way it to just let the DTUs broadcast, since you're on the same subnet. That way you can disable your dhcp service when you're at home, and enable it when you're traveling. svcadm disable dhcp-server svcadm enable dhcp-server Brad On Thu, 2007-08-16 at 10:52 -0600, Scott Serr wrote: > Does anyone use two DHCP servers on the same subnet?
