[Techtalk] Linux gateway + DHCP server setup?

Hi,

Yes

Not usually no.

You have to edit the file /etc/default/dhcp

and have the line:

INTERFACES="eth1"

> PS - My /etc/dhcpd.conf is listed below.

I'd suggest you advertise your router in the form:

option routers 10.0.0.1

rather than by name. You can also set this as a global option.
