dhcpd config to span subnets question
Hello all,
I have a network with a special router which will forward DHCP requests
from a client in one subnet to my Debian (up-to-date woody) server on a
different segment. My question is, how do I, (or can I), configure
dhcpd.conf to allow the dhcpd to serve a 172.21.2.xx,255.255.255.0
range from my eth0 interface which has an IP of
172.21.0.2,255.255.255.0?
dhcpd.conf
----------
default-lease-time 1200;
max-lease-time 2400;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option routers 172.21.2.1;
option domain-name-servers 172.21.0.2;
option domain-name "mydomain.com";
subnet 172.21.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 172.21.2.20 172.21.2.200;
}
cnsu:~# ifconfig eth0
-------------

No subnet declaration for eth0 (172.21.0.2).
Please write a subnet declaration in your dhcpd.conf file for the
network segment to which interface eth0 is attached.
exiting.
