New subject: DHCP
Okay, here's the deal now. I'm trying to configure the DHCP client on this old SS2 and I'm having difficuly. I searched and read through some threads, but I couldn't find information that helped me. I am trying to get a lease through my linksys dsl router with DHCP. I can ping 2 other machines on the network and the DHCP router, although I can not figure out how to get a lease. I read in a thread about sysidcfg and adding dhcp to it, but I can't find the sysidcfg file to do so. I really haven't seen any files pertaining to DHCP. How do I install or create them? I hope I am not too far off because i'm newbie, but help if you can. THANKS!

NAME

       dhclient.leases - DHCP client lease database

DESCRIPTION

       The Internet Systems Consortium DHCP client keeps a persistent database of leases that it has acquired that are still valid.   The database
       is a free-form ASCII file containing one valid declaration per lease.   If more than one declaration appears for a given  lease,  the  last
       one in the file is used.   The file is written as a log, so this is not an unusual occurrence.

       The format of the lease declarations is described in dhclient.conf(5).

FILES

       DBDIR/dhclient.leases

SEE ALSO

       dhclient(8), dhcp-options(5), dhclient.conf(5), dhcpd(8), dhcpd.conf(5), RFC2132, RFC2131.

AUTHOR

       dhclient(8)  was written by Ted Lemon under a contract with Vixie Labs.	 Funding for this project was provided by Internet Systems Consor-
       tium.  Information about Internet Systems Consortium can be found at https://www.isc.org.
