Turning off DHCP server in CentOS 4.4
Hello,
I installed CentOS 4.4 in my home Desktop and during the installation of CentOS 4.4, I activated DHCP. I am using a cable modem for my internet connection. Now I want to deactivate DHCP but I don't know how. How can I accomplish this without a re-installation?
Thank you.

It should be something like this
service dhcp stop
service dhcpcd stop
service dhclient stop
Something like this may also help, it works on RHEL and CentOS is almost a clone
RHEL: redhat-config-services
CentOS: centos-config-servicesPut your hand in an oven for a minute and it will be like an hour, sit beside a beautiful woman for an hour and it will be like a minute, that is relativity. --Albert Einstein

I have tried all options mentioned above but I get the message:
dhclient: unrecognized service
for all of them. Any idea how to stop the DHCP server?
Thank you

Try reconfiguring your network using system-config-network.
