[SWLUG] Noobie dhcpd question

[Hywel Burris]

Hi, 

I am very confused regarding the setup of dhcp-3.0pl1-9 on RH8.0 for a wireless arwain node. I set this up previously on RH7.3 with no problems but that used dhcp-2.0.

my /etc/dhcpd.conf is as below

subnet 10.0.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0
{
        option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
        option domain-name "arwain.net";
        option routers 10.0.1.1;
        option domain-name-servers 10.0.1.1;
        range dynamic-bootp 10.0.1.10 10.0.1.20;
        ddns-update-style ad-hoc;              (added after)
        default-lease-time 3600;
        max-lease-time 7200;
}

when is start the service I get the following error message:-

[root at insteng root]# service dhcpd start
Starting dhcpd: Internet Software Consortium DHCP Server V3.0pl1

** You must add a ddns-update-style statement to /etc/dhcpd.conf.
   To get the same behaviour as in 3.0b2pl11 and previous
   versions, add a line that says "ddns-update-style ad-hoc;"
   Please read the dhcpd.conf manual page for more information. **

as you can see I have added the require line "ddns-update-style ad-hoc;" but I am still getting the same error

Anyone got any ideas 

Thanks in advance

Hywel
