[mehaj]

Hi all,
i'm trying to configure my dhcp server but without success.
i've installed dhcpd

apt-get install dhcpd-server

then i've added the following line to my dhcpd.conf

host foo{
hardware ethernet 00:00:24:C9:5A: D0;
fixed-adress 169.254.81.51;
filename "pxelinux.0";
}

" i've followed this tuto "hp://roland.entierement.nu/pages/debian-on-soekris-howto.html"

i got this error:

i've attached my dhcpd.conf.
Thank you for any help

Well, you have a typo in your dhcpd.conf - which the error mentions as well. You spelled 'address' as 'adress' (it should be fixed-address).

That link you have doesn't have anything do do with dhcpd, but here's a good how-to on the subject.

Hope this helps.

thank you for your help psic, it works using this configuration

ddns-update-style none;
option domain-name "clowny.com";
option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.1;
default-lease-time 600;
max-lease-time 7200;
log-facility local7;
allow booting;
allow bootp;

subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.1.200 192.168.1.253;
option broadcast-address 192.168.1.255;
option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.1;
}

host hjr {
