Dear Sir/Madam, I have read the file dhcpdb.bind but I didn't understand much. Is that file store informations of the one who accessed the host? An example of one line in that file is: 1:0x00004c438911:192.168.1.0:1:0x00004c438911:"Thu Dec 3 19:15:11 1998":0068 Is "1:0x00004c438911" the MAC address of the accessing computer? Is "Thu Dec 3 19:15:11 1998" is the date and time of accessing? And is "0068" the number of that computer which is stored is the file dhcpdb.pool? But which computer has the IP address "192.168.1.0"? Because I've found that all the lines in dhcpdb.bind have the same one ("192.168.1.0"). Another question is what is the usage of the file dhcpdb.bind? Now our company is very interested in the security problem of our Internet system, could we use that file to inquire who had accessed our system? Would you please help me or tell me where I could find the answer? Now I couldn't have any detail document about that. I'm very sorry if my questions is so silly because I'm very new in both UNIX and Free BSD. I'm using Free BSD version 3.3. I'm Vietnamese but now working in Japan, I've found that many Japanese sites are concerned in Free BSD and security fields. I can understand Japanese so if you could have some Japanese answers or documents, you couldn't have to translate them into English. Thank you very much in advanced, and looking forward your reply, Tran Ngoc Thuan An __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Talk to your friends online with Yahoo!
