setting up dhcp relay agent
 
Hi there,
I'm trying to build a redhat 7.3 box as a router betweeen 4 subnets. i want dhcp requestand reply to move through the router between clients and dhcp server (which is a win 2000 box). so i need the linux box to forward these braodcast messages. my bquestions:
1- do i need to install dhcp server rpm?( actually i tried that, i downloaded a rpm and run the cooamnd rpm -Urh rpm_package. how can i verify that its intalled.
2- when i wrote the command dhcrelay to set the up the agent , the bash didn't recognize the command. so , what files to i need to check and where?
i haveonly to files at /etc and they are dhcpc and dhcppcd..

please help
i'm new to linux ( but not windows0
thanks

did you tried to run ./configure, make and make install?
normally if you do that you would find the downloaded directory...try the latest dhcp release..it 3.0. something i guess..it was under work-linux 2.2..then you can run dhcrelay
pls try
./dhcrelay -d -i eth0 -i eth1 -m forward <DHCP server ip addr>

good luck
