Where is the dhcpcd script or program located?

[carlos123]

I am looking for the dhcpcd script or program to configure my eth0 device and have not found it yet. Can someone give me some direction as to where it might be?

I already have a bootable Gentoo up and running but want to play around with my network connection some.

I've looked all over the livecd 1.4_rc2 CD and have not seen it anywhere though I know it's there somewhere. I know this because when I start a fresh install it's there.

Does the liveCD unpack it somehow? Such that I can't see it by looking into the directories myself?

If so how do I unpack it and make it available?

Any suggestions or insight would be appreciated.

Thanks.

When you boot from the CD it creates a virtual file system. Thats why when you do the install you have to make the directory /mnt/gentoo then mount your hard drive to it. So to answer your question, the dhcpd objects will be available in the virtual file system. You can do a find -iname dhcp* to find all files which have dhcp in them, then once you have mounted your hard drive you can copy them to there!

Hope this makes sense

Not sure exactly what you're looking for. Options can be set in /etc/conf.d/net. There is also the rc script in /etc/init.d net.???. And there is /sbin/dhcpcd


Moved from installing Gentoo.
