Problem with DHCP Server in Endian Firewall 2.2 Beta 1

[Guest]

[jfontes]

So,

Last week, I got the Endian Firewall 2.2 Beta 1 and installed it.

After configure all functions that will be necessary in my firewall, tried configure the DHCP Server but it´s don´t work!

My DHCP Server status is STOPPED! Anyway the checkbox DHCP GREEN INTERFACE is checked!

Can someone help me, please?

I´ve to do this urgent!

I just try go to the shell and type:
# cd /etc/rc.d/init.d
# ./dhcpd start

The service DHCP will be START, but, when I restart the machine, the service DHCP go to STOPPED.

Please, help me!

Hi,

you have to check /etc/dhcpd.conf on your endian-box.

The GUI fills the dhcpd config file incorrect.
In my case i have to replace the netmask 24 with 255.255.255.0
Further i must enter the DHCP- Range manually. This entry from the GUI was fully incomplete (Only first Octet )

Small Config File for example you can find here: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/DHCP/x369.html#AEN382

After that you can start dhcp via direct ssh- acces on the Box: /etc/rc.d/init.d/dhcpd start

have Fun

Thanks FFDeder, I did this and it now works. Is there a way to start the DHCP server when it reboots? I still have to do that manually when the machine restarts.
Thanks again!

Hi,

place the lines to start dhcpd in:

/etc/init.d/rc.local

If I'm correct it should load this after boot.

Let me know if it worked.
