<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV>I still working with DHCP and here I have some information about the situation:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I was testing my ethernet cards with tcpdump and in my client when I assign a static ip address with ifconfig and with tcpdump I dont see anything. I dont know if my ethernet card is not working or it is normal, when I made the test I had only my client connected to a switch. I dont know is it normal or not ???</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>In other way ...</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I connect the server and the client to the switch and then I started the dhcp server with a static ip , then I try to load the card in my client with Ifup eth0 and in this moment and only in this moment the tcpdump in the card of my SERVER begin to show me the next lines:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>11:51:18.114615 B 0.0.0.0 bootpc 255.255.255.255.bootps:xid:0x48b1064 secs:3 [bootp]</DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV>11:51:18.114615 B 0.0.0.0 bootpc 255.255.255.255.bootps:xid:0x48b1064 secs:3 [bootp]</DIV></DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV>.</DIV>
<DIV>.</DIV>
<DIV>.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I think the server is getting the ip request but something is wrong.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Here is the dhcp.conf </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>server-name "server.cluster.org"</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0</DIV>
<DIV>{</DIV>
<DIV> range 192.168.1.2 192.168.1.10 #my client has the ip 192.168.1.2</DIV>
<DIV> #and my server the static ip 192.168.1.1 </DIV>
<DIV> option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;</DIV>
<DIV> option broadcast-address 192.168.1.255;</DIV>
<DIV> option domain-name-server 192.168.1.1; </DIV>
<DIV> option domain-name "cluster.org";</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> host nodo1.cluster.org</DIV>
<DIV> {</DIV>
<DIV> hardware ethernet 00:60:97:a1:ef:e0; #here is the address of the client's card</DIV>
<DIV> fixed-address 192.168.1.2;</DIV>
<DIV> }</DIV>
<DIV>} </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>And finally some files on my server.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>NETWORK</DIV>
<DIV>------------------------------------------</DIV>
<DIV>networking = yes</DIV>
<DIV>hostname =server.cluster.org</DIV>
<DIV>gatewaydev = eth0</DIV>
<DIV>gatewaye=</DIV>
<DIV>------------------------------------------</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>HOSTS ( In my server and in the client I have the same on this file )</DIV>
<DIV>------------------------------------------</DIV>
<DIV>127.0.0.1 localhost</DIV>
<DIV>192.168.1.1 server.cluster.org</DIV>
<DIV>192.168.1.2 nodo1.cluster.org</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Ok thats the information, I am a little confuse, could you help me please =). I canīt detect the mistake, I dont know if is the server or some card =s.
