I would think that it would. Obviously, your in RFC 1483 bridge mode (we're not doing PPP yet). Do you have a 675 or an old Speedrunner? I use Wide-dhcp on our systems here. It works fine with a dhcp server (sun with Cisco Server Suite). I assume that it would work over the dsl line. Do you have uswest.net or another provider. I have my 675 in PPP mode so I can't truely test freebsd with it. I'm also on travel next week, and have some things to clean up today. So, unfortunately, I don't have much time to try it out. When we go to ppp with nat instead of bridge mode. You will be just choose an address out of 10.0.0.1/24 (the ethernet on the 675 will be 10.0.0.1 and dhcp will hand out starting at 10.0.0.2). That should happen sometime in 1999, I wish I knew when. -- Paul T.
