Re: [SLE] Configuring DHCP using YAST
the gui of yast-dhcp configuration doesn't seem to
have an option to assign fixed-ip address on specific
mac address which leaves me with no option but to hand
code the config files. it would have been a lot
simpler for not so experienced linux users like me to
use the gui rather than hand code the config files. i
wonder why this was not present in version 10 when
this exact feature is found in sles9.

is it possible to configure DHCP fixed-address leases using yast that comes with suse linux 10. i'm sure that this is possible in sles9.

Please don't ask questions and present amazement at lack of features if you are not interested in reading answers presented. Bruce Marshall advised you that it is not Yast's function to tell your router to assign addresses. YOU must program your router to do this, no matter which distro or what operating system you use. the posting is: X-Mailinglist: suse-linux-e X-Message-Number-for-archive: 250562 -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org HOG # US1244711 Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2
