RE: [MLUG] DHCP Server question

[Rick Buford <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

you can specify which interface it answers to when it starts.
from /etc/rc.d/init.d/dhcpd:

start() {
        # Start daemons.
        echo -n $"Starting $prog: "
        daemon /usr/sbin/dhcpd eth1
        RETVAL=$?
        echo
        [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && touch /var/lock/subsys/dhcpd
        return $RETVAL

eth1 being my internal interface

Ok I'll admit it, I set you up the bomb

Subject: [MLUG] DHCP Server question


Is there anyway to configure the DHCP server to only answer requests to a
local network, through one interface?  Meaning, to configure your Linux
box sitting between a cable modem/adsl and the rest of your machines to
configure hosts using DHCP, but NOT to answer requests for machines coming
through the other network card?  I imagine it could be done somehow with
IP-Tables, but if someone has a good, quick and workable solution, I'd
appreciate it.
Thanks!
