Hi, I've set up isc-dhcpd (/usr/ports/net/isc-dhcp42-server). The daemon runs, hands out IP-addresses however logging doesn't seem to work. Here's what I've got in the respective config-files: /etc/rc.conf: # dhcpd dhcpd_enable="YES" dhcpd_conf="/usr/local/etc/dhcpd.conf" dhcpd_ifaces="em0" dhcpd_withumask="022" dhcpd_chuser_enable="YES" dhcpd_withuser="dhcpd" dhcpd_withgroup="dhcpd" dhcpd_chroot_enable="YES" dhcpd_devfs_enable="YES" dhcpd_rootdir="/var/db/dhcpd" /usr/local/etc/dhcpd.conf: ... log-facility local7; /etc/syslog.conf: local7.* /var/log/dhcpd.log /var/log/dhcpd.log is "touch"ed, so it exists. Also restarted syslogd and isc-dhcpd. Result: dhcpd works (i.e. I see entries in the leases-file (/var/db/dhcpd/var/db/dhcpd/dhcpd.leases) however nothing is logged to /var/log/dhcpd.log. I can rule out any error with syslogd.conf since when I start isc-dhcp "by hand" (/usr/local/sbin/dhcpd -d) I get an error message - and this one is definitely logged to /var/log/dhcpd.log. What I really need though is a log of all the DHCP-transactions, i.e. DHCP-requests, address assignments etc. Thanks much in advance for your help, -ewald
