I'm trying to setup a simple dhcpd server but it's turning out to not
be so simple. I just need it to serve a single ip for one windows
client. The ip is static, so I don't need a range, the dhcpd server
simply needs to provide the ip to this particular host everytime it
connects to the network. I tried setting up dhcpd.conf with "host"
specific declarations but it did not work:
subnet 206.247.117.0 netmask 255.255.255.240 {
host muxcha {
hardware ethernet 00-D0-59-15-FF-D9;
fixed-address 206.247.117.66;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.240;
option routers 206.247.117.65;
default-lease-time 604800;
max-lease-time 2592000;
deny unknown-clients;
deny bootp;
}
It tells me this:
Bogus number: 00-D0-59-15-FF-D9
I don't even know if I have the config file right :/ The only other
idea I have is to set up a range for the subnet and just make the range
the ip that I want to give to this computer, like this:
subnet 206.247.117.64 netmask 255.255.255.240 {
range 206.247.117.66 206.247.117.66;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.240;
option routers 206.247.117.65;
default-lease-time 604800;
max-lease-time 2592000;
deny unknown-clients;
deny bootp;
}
Any ideas on a better way to do this? Or accomplish what I want to do
in the first place? TIA.
