Re: DHCP with Static Addresses

Good idea!

However, 'dhcpd' is running within my LinkSys router, not on one of my
Debian boxen ...

I spent quite a few minutes going through the router's option pages,
but couldn't see a way to specify this.

Anyone know how to configure a LinkSys router to use the above approach?


Thanks for everyone's comments/suggestions,
