You tell you dhcp server to give a static address to your mac address upon request. That's set up on your dhcp server, NOT on your laptop. > (I have no dhcpd.config because the daemon has not been > started.

The client requests an address, the dhcp server provides one. Instruct the dhcp server to always provide the same address to your mac address and ta-da! -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
