Re: /etc/dhcpd.conf



dpk,

  What works for me is to have the IP addresses all on the same line,
separated by commas:

   option domain-name-servers XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX, YYY.YYY.YYY.YYY;

  Using WinIPConfig on the Win95 machines, it shows the XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
as the primary nameserver and YYY.YYY.YYY.YYY as the secondary.

  Hope this helps.
