Sir,

I have a linux system with FC4, Now i am using it as a router,

my etho is 10.0.0.100, 255.255.255.0 and DNS is 10.1.1.1

eth1 is 192.168.1.100, 255.255.255.0.

The pcs connected with eth1 are win2k professional.
Now all PCs connected with eth1 get internet working fine.

Now i want to add another 50 PCs with eth1 for internet

For that I was asked to make linux PC as DHCP server

For the above my setup how to make my linux PC as DHCP server
and what are the changes have i do in the clients i.e WIN2K prof Pcs ?

If any body knows

#rcdhcpd start
