From: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.3 DHCP server configuration and application

A DHCP service is set up on the newly installed Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.3 Virtual Machine. Once the configuration files are complete, the dhcpd service cannot be started. I found the problem only today when I checked the detailed information of the dhcp software package installation!

The rpm package for the dhcp-4.1.1 has automatically created the master configuration file dhcpd when the dhcpd service is installed. conf, in/etc/dhcp/dhcpd. conf while following Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and dhcp-3. *. *. -***: I manually created a master configuration file:/etc/dhcpd. conf, and complete the parameter configuration, but the main configuration file that actually works is an empty file !!

Therefore, it always fails at startup. the following error is displayed when you view the log:

After overwriting the previously configured/etc/dhcpd. conf to/etc/dhcp/dhcpd. conf, The dhcpd service is successfully started. Next, record the DHCP service setup steps.

1. Check whether the DHCP service is installed

2. Mount the Red Hat mounting Disk

3. Install the dhcp service (the rpm Packages on this installation disk are in the Packages directory)
