I'm trying to network my laptop and desktop so that my life will be much easier with some things. The problem I'm having is this.I'm using dhcp so that the desktop can pull an ip adress from the cable modem. I installed dhcpd, and am trying to configure it, but 1 don't fully understand the manpages, and 2 I don't fully understand the config file. I took a lot of guesses at it, but my laptop still can't connect to the internet. The laptop is fine when it's connected to the modem by itself, so my guess is that the problem is with my desktop. If someone can please help me with this I would appreciate it.
