The error message the installation ends with might be a little confusing, but the following steps will
help you configure the service:
Most commonly, what you want to do is assign an IP address randomly. This can be done with
settings as follows:
# Sample /etc/dhcpd.conf
# (add your comments here)
default-lease-time 600;
max-lease-time 7200;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option broadcast-address 192.168.1.255;
option routers 192.168.1.254;
option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.1, 192.168.1.2;
option domain-name "mydomain.example";
subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.1.10 192.168.1.100;
range 192.168.1.150 192.168.1.200;
}
This will result in the DHCP server giving a client an IP address from the range
192.168.1.10-192.168.1.100 or 192.168.1.150-192.168.1.200. It will lease an IP address for 600
seconds if the client doesn't ask for a specific time frame. Otherwise the maximum (allowed) lease
will be 7200 seconds. The server will also "advise" the client that it should use 255.255.255.0 as
its subnet mask, 192.168.1.255 as its broadcast address, 192.168.1.254 as the router/gateway and
192.168.1.1 and 192.168.1.2 as its DNS servers.
If you need to specify a WINS server for your Windows clients, you will need to include the netbios-
name-servers option, e.g.
option netbios-name-servers 192.168.1.1;
