I've been searching for about a week and am now going over old links, so I think I may have exhausted the literature. I'm not (yet) an expert on networking LFS. What I want to do is add a dhcp ethernet interface to a bridge. I am trying to use the blfs scripting as far as possible, and have found numerous small errors in the scripts which cause a little untidiness.
I've installed the latest scripts, and the latest DHCP...P2 package(client only as per the comprehensive instructions). Now. I've got dhcp ethernet on eth0 quite successfully; all the assignments work and I can ping our gateway after automatic startup. According to the brctl man page, simply adding eth0 to a bridge should be enough. It isn't. Has anybody bridged an LFS dhcp ethernet interface successfully, and if so would you be willing to share? This is driving me up the wall. Simon -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
