SCO and DHCP

[trevor]

I'm trying to get a wireless network started for my work and am having
troubles getting the DHCP to assign to the wireless clients. Does anyone
have an example DHCP and AAS configuration I could look at. Any help here
would be great. Thank you.

The scoadmin managers "do the right thing"; run them, and they will
create (with of course your actual IP numbers):, and your own name for
the pool):

/etc/aasd/conf:

pool JPRpool:INET {
A.B.C.S-A.B.C.E
}

/etc/dhcpd.conf:

subnet A.B.C.0 {
mask 255.255.255.0
pool JPRpool
lease_dflt 3600
lease_max infinite
t1 750
t2 900
routers A.B.C.D
dns_servers {
M.N.O.P
Q.R.S.T
}
}

thank you JP!

I've got the client making the request, but in a dhcp debug,
I keep getting the error message "no information for clients subnet."
Anyone know what this means?

No.

So show us your conf files...

Trevor for what it's worth, I had a terrible time with SCO DHCP server on 506.
I had issues that SCO was not able to resolve with IP's constantly being removed
from the pool and a lease time of about 5 seconds on Win2k clients. I finally
put up a RedHat box which works perfectly.

Personally I dumped the SCO DHCP server and switched to using the ISC server
which is a lot more flexible (I needed dynamic DNS updates).
