Hi Every one.
I have written a small application using gtk2.0. Also i have prepared a
bootable cd image so that when i boot from the cd my application runs.
For this purpose i have used kernel 2.6.14 statically compiled (without modules) and
isolinux.bin as a bootloader while using the suse linux
Also i m using Xvesa server for X support with icewm window manager.

I want to configure network for my bootbale disc.
Using a mannual networking that is by giving ip address and netmask, i got success and the network was configured. But now i want to configure the network automatically. But i m not getting the right path.
I m trying to use dhcpcd deamon to automatically configure the network but all my efforts are not ending in a success.
What should i use dhcpd or dhcpcd?
I want to know the correct steps to configure network automatically (i-e without giving an ip address or netmask).
Please help me this matter
Thanx

dhcpcd is the client daemon, dhcpd is the server daemon. you want the former. alternatively you could use dhclient pump, dhcxcd or other dhcp clients.

I tried dhcpcd. The network was configured but there was no file named as "dhcpcd-<interface>.pid" in the /var/run directory.
When i ping the server it was working.
On the other hand, i tried the same thing on a second pc on the same network, but i this case nothing happend. the network was not configured.

I m using dhcpcd v.1.3.22-pl4 for this purpose.
I tried the command
dhcpcd -d <interface>

Any thing more i need to do?
