[Sheflug] Am I Misunderstanding This?
I am trying to set up a DHCP server running.
My /etc/dhcpd.conf file reads as follows:
default-lease-time 28800;
max-lease-time 57600;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option routers 192.168.0.15;
ddns-update-style ad-hoc;
#define local network
subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0
{
range 192.168.0.50 192.168.0.254;
}
#make sure the router gets a fixed address
host router
{
hardware ethernet 00:02:E3:18:1A:8E;
fixed-address 192.168.0.15;
}
dhcpd starts ok - but no host is issued with an IP address (I can now ping
into and out of the server).
I don't have any routing tables or a DNS set up - would this have an effect?
I don't see how I can translate names to addresses when the adresses are
dynamic.
All the domains are set to 'localhost' - although we do have a FQDN
(estfeld.doncaster.sch.uk) it is administered by an ISP and I understand if I
include this in the domain name - trouble will ensue!
Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong?
Cheers,
Alistair
