moving networks
|
|

Hi Everybody,
I'm very new to this list. Here is my conundrum...
I had a server colocated on a network. This server had a
static ip address (63.121.161.98)
I moved that server to my house with a dynamic ip address via
comcast cable modem.
At my house, I have a small lan set up with one box running
bsd, another running windows, and a third being the server I
just brought home. I'm trying to get the third box on my
network at home. In other words, has anyone out there
converted a bsd box from a static ip address to using dhcp on
startup?
If so, can you please reply. I'm stumped on even where to
begin. I want to do this because I'd like to back up some
info on that server prior to refomatting.
Thanks,
dan

Technical support questions should go to questions@FreeBSD.org; this
list is not for technical support.

BTW, serious question: why did you think config@FreeBSD.org was a
support list? You're hardly alone in making this mistake, and we're
currently talking about how to fix it. Is there some piece of
confusing documentation out there?

Thanks for answering though, this is what I think most people are
thinking when they send their support questions here.

I think if people aren't reading the mailing list description then
adding more text isn't likely to help :)

*nod* I agree with this comment. I don't see much reason to keep
it either.
