When Mandrake 7.2 is installed "completely", shouldn't it have pump or dhcpcd or dhcpd in /sbin? I only assume this because those programs are there on my Red Hat 6.2 machine. I'm trying to Network both machines through a Telocity DSL connection and a Linksys 4 Port Router/Firewall. the Mandrake machine recognizes the NIC through Drakconf so I assume that is setup correctly.

So to the question, can I just download pump or dhcpcd or dhcpd and should they already be on the machine?

Thanks

It was installed on my "complete" installation. Have you tried "locate dhcpd", if you have not try that. you can download it or it should also be an rpm on your cd.

Sometimes Mandy does not install certain packages, even though you have selected everything and have the disk space. Insert your Mandy CD #1, then:

cd /mnt/cdrom/M*/R*

rpm -ivh --force dhcp*

Also, while you're at it:

rpm -ivh telnet-server*

because if you want to telnet to that PC, the telnet server needs to be installed (which it probably wasn't unless you did a server installation).
