Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-isp@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I have had alot of success with using the latest stable port of DHCPD on a small LAN, but attempts to get it to serve IP addresses dynamically through a tun/ppp link have always failed. I suspect it has something to do with tun being a pseudo-device. DHCPD works just fine with real devices like a network card. Has anyone had any success with using DHCPD to dynamically assign IP addresses to dialup users? If not, has anyone found any other way to dynamically assign addresses to dialup users on FreeBSD? I am currently using FreeBSD 2.2.5
