RE: DHCP on boot

["Smith, Brian N." <bnsmith@Mobility.com>]

I am referring to the client

I have a cable modem, and have to run DHCP 

What happens to the IP address one assigns during the kernal build?

Thanks

Brian

	Are you talking about the client or the server?

	If you are talking about the client then you should have installed
	(automatically, from dhcpcd*.deb) a script in /etc/init.d/ that will
start the
	client at boot time. But if you have a PCMCIA network card you
should set
	DHCP="y" in /etc/pcmcia/network.opts.

	Bye,
