I have followed the home network guide on the wiki:
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_setup_a_home-server
It is a very good howto, but one problem. I have an Ultra10 box that I am trying to turn into my proxy/local rsync/web/mail server. The box has 2 ethernet ports. My config file in /etc/conf.d/net is set up correctly but, when I connect my other gentoo box to it. There is no activity from eth1. eth0 is still connected with no problem, but no dice from eth1. I have dhcpd running on the box, but my other gentoo box cannot see it (i.e. dhcpcd eth0 doesn't work). Here is my conf file:
| Code: |
# dhcpd.conf
#
# Sample configuration file for ISC dhcpd
#
# option definitions common to all supported networks...
#option domain-name "servehttp.com";
#option domain-name-servers 192.168.0.1;
#default-lease-time 6000;
#max-lease-time 7200;
# If this DHCP server is the official DHCP server for the local
# network, the authoritative directive should be uncommented.
#authoritative;
# Use this to send dhcp log messages to a different log file (you also
# have to hack syslog.conf to complete the redirection).
#log-facility local7;
#ddns-update-style ad-hoc;
# No service will be given on this subnet, but declaring it helps the
# DHCP server to understand the network topology.
authoritative;
ddns-update-style ad-hoc;
subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.0.20 192.168.0.39;
default-lease-time 259200;
max-lease-time 518400;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
#option netbios-name-servers 192.168.0.1;
option broadcast-address 192.168.0.255;
option routers 192.168.0.1;
option domain-name-servers 192.168.0.1;
}

What does syslog show? Have you watched from the server using tcpdump, do the request packets show up?
On my setup here, dhcpcd requests and IP and then does a reverse lookup of the IP. If it can't find the name from the IP, it does not accept the address. I believe this is because of options I have set in my /etc/conf.d/net file, but I have not done enough experiments to be sure. |

check your /etc/conf.d/dhcp, and make sure you have told dhcp what interface you are using to serve ips
