need help dhcp pool or include

Obig · 05-06-2009, 09:50 AM

Hello;

I'm looking for a way to give our known laptop users a ip over dhcp.
I would like to add their MAC address in a list of "known clients" which are authorised to receive DHCP. All other are denied.

But I just don't get it right.
I tried making a pool with an allow for but I didn't manage to get it working.
And the "include" I don't find enough info about how to add this into my conf file so I can add a file with the MAC's listed.

Anyone can give me a start please?

Thanks

You should be more specific about what isn't working. Have you built and installed the dhcpd package (which one)? Have you tried to launch the daemon? What errors, if any are reported on either the server or client end? What information shows up in system logs? We need a lot more information, as well as some sample of what you've already tried.
