Hi Folks,
The following strikes me as wrong, but i am Not guru,
so i thought to ask this forum where the wizards Do Live! :)
Pls consider a configuration with a single host providing NFS4
/home directories for other hosts in a 6 host cluster. Further,
openldap is on the same host to provide for authentication
on all 6.
the architect says its ok to configure all hosts w/DHCP,
but i see the ip changing every day or 2 (many reboots due setup).
I am a huge fan of static ip for servers, but what do i know?! :(
So, Question, is DHCP ok for the 6 hosts in this config, or go static.
More, static on server only maybe?
for servers dynamic addresses?
WTF?
but you can satisfy both with dhcpd and controll
this way any ip-address dynamically
i am doing this even in bigger setups for any known client machine
and generate dhcpd.conf based on my dns-database which has a column
for the hwaddress
host printer {
hardware ethernet 00:17:A4:6E:2E:95;
fixed-address 192.168.2.10;
}
