DHCP Help
So I'm trying to work with a Linux box that was designed by a group of people who are no longer around and I'm having difficulty getting into the box. The board has an ethernet port and two serial ports, but it doesn't look like there is a getty service running on either serial port which leaves the ethernet port for interface.
The problem is that they have the board set up to use DHCP so I can't figure out how to set it up so that I can telnet to it. Can anyone help me with this? I'm pretty good with routing protocol but I've never really worked with DHCP on a technical level. I'm trying to interface with it using a laptop running Ubuntu.
Thanks

HI,
New to Unix and I inherited a network that runs DHCP in manual configuration mode. Basically, in order for a machine to get an IP it has to have an entry in dhcpd.conf with its MAC address mapped to a hostname (the hostname then maps to an IP address listed in the DNS db file). If there is... (2 Replies)

dwtlistboxsetpos
DwtListBoxSetPos(3Dwt) DwtListBoxSetPos(3Dwt)
Name
DwtListBoxSetPos - Makes a specified position (item number in the list) the top visible position in a list box, or as close to the top as
possible.
Syntax
void DwtListBoxSetPos(widget, position)
Widget widget;
int position;
Arguments
widget Specifies the ID of the list box widget whose specified item number in the list you want displayed in the top position.
position Specifies the item number in the list displayed in the top position in the list box.
Description
The DwtListBoxSetPos function makes the specified position (the item number in the list) the top visible position in a list box. The func-
tion determines which item in the list box is displayed at the top of the list box, the choice of which is limited by the DwtNitemsCount
and DwtNvisibleItemsCount attributes to the list box widget. When DwtNvisibleItemsCount is greater than 1 and less than DwtNitemsCount,
the list box widget fills the list box with the maximum visible items regardless of the position value.
For example, if DwtNitemsCount is 10 and DwtNvisibleItemsCount is 5, you cannot make item 8 be displayed at the top of the list box.
Instead, items 6 through 10 would be displayed. Setting position to 4 would make items 4 through 8 be displayed. If DwtNvisibleItemsCount
is 1, you can make any item in the list be displayed at the top of the list box.
