Ok I'm not sure if I exactly know what you are asking but I will try and answer you and also maybe you can clarify. These are the 3 possible questions I can discern from your e-mail. #1 How do I install FTP server software on FreeBSD? - It comes with the os and is a part of the installation. You can also set it up easily using the post-install configuration in /stand/sysinstall. #2 How do I use DHCP with FreeBSD? - You need to install one of the DHCP ports. There are currently 2 implementations isc-dhcp and wide-dhcp. Which can be found in the /usr/ports/net directory. Check the documentation on each port to determine which to use. Maybe someone else on the list can make recommendations, I myself don't have enough experience with using the dhcp client. #3 If I setup an FTP server with a dynamically assigned ip, how will people know where to find me? - In this case you can sign up with a service that assigns static hostnames to dynamic ip's. Such as DyDns.net or NWS.net. Hope this helps. -Chris P.S. Next time try and be more clear as to what exactly you are asking. > -----Original Message----- > From: Shoto [SMTP:shoto@metropolis.cx] > Sent: Wednesday, February 17, 1999 3:29 PM > To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: how to > > > I have asdl and I am wondering how to setup a freebsd box as a ftp > site.
