Puppy DHCP server instructions?

#1 Post by SnowDog »

Hi all.
After a very hectic summer I almost have time to think again, so I thought this would be a good time to screw it all up & add another project to my plate.

Can anyone point me at a step by step, or otherwise help me, to get Puppy running as a dhcp server?

Current set-up is as follows:
Puppy/XP dual booting on a P4 1.4Gig box (which presently serves internet to household via a Linsys wireless router, running on XP's shared connection)
Some wired, some wireless, machines as clients, running various OS's.

What I'd like:
To run Puppy exclusively on the P4 and have it be a DHCP server for the rest of the house, perhaps even serve apps & share it's printers and DVD burner with the others as well. (although internet is the main concern)

Has someone dot-pup'd something, or made a how-to for this already?

Thanks in adavance for pointers.
