Subject:   Multiple IP's with DHCP?
Message-ID:  <BAY16-F18RZmqWVzlSI00023612@hotmail.com>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
   I have Time Warner Road Runner Boradband service and I spoke to the 
technician and found that they allow 3 IP's to be pulled with basic service. 
  I would like to set up My FreeBSD 4.9 box with two of these IP's.  I have 
a switch connected to my cable modem which allows me to pull the multiple 
IP's.  I have two NIC's installed in my box and have let auto configure set 
them up for DHCP in /stand/sysinstall.  As you can see from ifconfig below 
xl0 is set up correctly but dc0 will not configure.  It should be noted that 
I did have this set up and working briefly but after a restart the settings 
were lost.  How do I set up two IP's with DHCP in FreeBSD 4.9?  Thank you.
