[opensuse] DHCPd, how to ignore one particular host...
Hi list, On SUSE10.2, I've got my dhcp server running, serving out IPs just perfect. - for a number of reasons, I want one particular client (a windoze box) which is actually set to be a dhcp client, to be ignored by my dhcp server. I know the MAC adr of that box. How can I deny that box from getting an adress from my dhcp server? -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Med venlig hilsen/Best regards Verner Kjærsgaard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

How can I deny that box from getting an adress from my dhcp server? If you only have a few computers, you could work with fixed MAC / IP Settings in your dhcpd.conf file (i.e. working with dhcp, but assigning fixed addresses to the clients) and then leave out your windows box.
On a side note: If the windows box is on the same network but you do not want it to get an ip via dhcp, then you might want to assign a static setting outside your dhcp range and your problem with limiting the dhcp server will be gone. regards Eberhard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
