Hi, I have a home network with a router connected to the external internet, and four PCs on the home network. The router provides IPs with its DHCP server. (The router is a small commercial box skrewed to the wall). One of the PCs on the home network is a FreeBSD (6-Stable). This FreeBSD PC runs dhclient to get its IP configuration. So far so good. All other PCs on the network are Windows PCs, but have a BIOS that allow Network boots. Therefore I would like to set up the possibility to boot these PCs as diskless boxes from the FreeBSD PC, using the bootpd server. Hence, I'd like to make this FreeBSD PC a bootpd server. But it is already running dhclient. Would such a setup cause conflicts? Thanks, Rob. --------------------------------- Yahoo! Mail Use Photomail to share photos without annoying attachments.
