what is the difference between DHCP and DHCPCD?

if I have DHCP installed does it in anyway interfear with DHCPCD?

DHCP is the dhcp daemon - that is, it will send dhcp leases on your subnet if you have it configured to do so. DHCPCD is the client side - it will look to dhcp for an ip lease.

I don't believe they will interfere with each other per say, but why would you have them both running at the same time?

I dont know? I really dont know what Im doing yet. I am just trying to get online with my cable modem:) o what your saying is that I only need DHCP if im using my system as a server? that way all my other systems can "login" using DHCPCD? am I way off? Ron
