There is a DHCP server & client package which is described as running on FreeBSD 1.1.5. I have not tried it myself, just going from the README file. Some tweaking might be necessary for more recent versions of FreeBSD. The code is at: <ftp://sh.wide.ad.jp/WIDE/free-ware/dhcp/> The current version is dhcp-1_3beta_tar.gz (no US mirror AFAIK). You should also check the DHCP FAQ: <http://web.syr.edu/~jmwobus/comfaqs/dhcp.faq.html> Jean-Marc Frailong
