Previously "tao" was 10.0.0.247 and "tao2" was 10.0.0.250. Today I switched the names in /usr/local/etc/dhcpd.conf, shutdown, and rebooted my mailserver--also my DNS server--and the two other computers. Whenever I reboot my new "tao2" (used to be 10.0.0.247) is reports its IP as 10.0.0.250. Anybody know how I've screw this up?? thanks in advancem gary -- Gary Kline Sr. Systems Admin, Thought Unlimited kline@ethos.thought.org www.thought.org
