At work I am trying to get this one Linux machine (let's call it ctesgm07) to behave like another Linux machine that we have (let's call it test007).
test007 returns the following version info:
cat /etc/debian_version: lenny/sid
uname -a: Linux test007 2.6.27-7-generic #1 SMP Tue Nov 4 19:33:20 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
ctesgm07 returns the following version info:
cat /etc/debian_version: 4.0
uname -a: Linux ctesgm07 2.6.21-1-686 #1 SMP Sat May 19 01:13:28 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
The test007 machine currently acts as a server for a device that has an ethernet cable attached to it, and that ethernet cable goes into an ethernet-to-USB adapter, which is plugged into one of the USB ports of test007. The device has successfully requested an IP address (192.168.1.100) from test007.
Now I want to set up the ctesgm07 machine to act as a server for the same type of device. But the DHCP server on ctesgm07 is failing to start:
Here is what got written to /var/log/syslog:
I have attached the /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf from ctesgm07. I could have sworn the DHCP server was working when we used this machine several months ago for something else, but I could be mistaken. I also tried the dhcpd.conf from the test007 machine, but then it failed on ctesgm07 and output the same error to /var/log/syslog. That one is attached too.
Another thing I am wondering about is that the test007 machine shows the following when I run ifconfig:
eth0 would be for its connection to the corporate network, and eth1 would be its USB-to-ethernet connection to the child device attached to it. But when I run ifconfig on ctesgm07, I get:
It has eth0, but there is no eth1, even though I do have a child device attached to it via an ethernet-to-USB adapter. How do I get eth1 to show up?
