| I think your configuration is a little wrong. My interpretation of your config is that you have a system with two nics, one (192.168.1.13) which talks to the router at 192.168.1.1, the other 192.168.2.101 is connected to a different network. Again, I could be wrong, but what I think you're trying to do is configure a dhcp server to serve IP address's on the second network 192.168.2.0/255.255.255.0. What you need to do is firstly ensure routing is enabled on the host. Next you need to configure a dhcp scope for the 192.168.2.0 network. With routing enabled on the host, the default gateway for the scope will be 192.168.2.101. Your range of IP addresses can be anything valid within that subnet. Thirdly, it would make sense that the dhcpd server only binds to the interface in question, rl0. My guess is the following configuration will work for you. Read up on the lease times. subnet 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { range 192.168.2.100 192.168.2.120; option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0; option broadcast-address 192.168.2.255; option domain-name "somedomain"; one-lease-per-client on; default-lease-time 14400; max-lease-time 14401; option ip-forwarding off; option routers 192.168.2.101 option domain-name-servers <ip address of name servers>; } Have fun, Brian.
