Yes, it should work. I've done it with Win9x clients. I also have a DHCP server running on the inner interface and the DHCP client running on the external interface. You said the clients are getting the addresses, right? That would seem to say some of it is working. Are you getting any errors from dhcpd at startup? If you dump the conversation, # tcpdump -i -s1500 -nvvX 'port 68' Do you see the nameserver info being passed? What does your whole dhcpd.conf file look like (the one line you posted had a tiny typo, but that may have happened if you did not copy it verbatim)? -- Crist J.
