My router just went out and I'm trying to set up my Linux box to connect directly through my cable modem. Under DNS and Hostname, there is a box at the bottom that says -- Update Name Servers and Search List Via DHCP That's what I want, but the box is grayed out. I seem to recall that something has to be shut down before that can be changed. I went to the Runlevel Editor and save Network, so I thought shutting that down would be the ticket. Well, when I select it, a pop-up came up saying it would also have to shut down about 20 other services. I'm hoping that's not what I have to do to change this networking over to DHCP. If so, then hopefully bringing Network back up will automatically bring all of those other services back up. If not, then that's a real pain in the ass (I'd have to write down all of those other services so I could come back and re-enable them one at a time). Someone please tell me that getting set up for DHCP is a lot easier than that. Thanks, Greg Wallace
