DHCP Question


Hello, im back with another newbie question.

Im currently using Slackware and just started with DHCP-server.
Now, the DHCP works great, it sprays out IP-addresses on the network.
BUT! I want one computer to have a specific IP-address and I can't figure out how to do it. I've been trying with the hardware ehternet and fixed-address commands, but they dont seem to work. Anything I forgot or is it a different parameter in Slackware?

Thanks for any help!

I speculate that your closing } doesn't include the hardware ethernet/Fixed Addr, but if you post the config then we maybe able to spot an error that you've overlooked?

Right on top, I forgot the closing bracket. Works like a charm now
