Don't change this unless # -- you understand Netbios very well # option netbios-node-type 2; range dynamic-bootp 192.168.71.101 192.168.71.115; default-lease-time 21600; max-lease-time 43200; # we want the nameserver to appear at a fixed address host ns { next-server gene.coyote.den; hardware ethernet 00:04:4B:5D:EB:7D; fixed-address 192.168.71.1; } } Which may not be correct in itself :( but it worked. And I've added this below that: group { # we want the lappy at a fixed address too host diablo { hardware ethernet 00:14:A5:75:32:C9; fixed address 192.168.71.5; } } But a network restart on the lappy is still getting 192.168.71.102? -- Cheers, Gene People having trouble with vz bouncing email to me should add the word 'online' between the 'verizon', and the dot which bypasses vz's stupid bounce rules.
