failover DHCP
Howdy All,We are looking into implementing a redundant DHCP system in our office. Our main office uses NT servers with Split Scope. I'd like to implement a linux failover DHCP system, using ISC's failover configuration. Does anyone have any experience with failover DHCP? We would test, of course, but if people have had lots of problems maybe it's not worth even the testing. Thanx.

Re: failover DHCP
Be careful. I had my share doing this tricks, and from my experience, NT's/2K/2003 DHCP server implementation simply sucks, specially when it comes to Linux machines receving IP's from NT machines. My suggestion: Install any other DHCP server on your Windows machines that works well with Linux.

Re: failover DHCP
TAU runs with two ISC version 3.0.2 on Linux RH3. Over 10,000 hosts, most of them are assigned static addresses, but we also have a small number of dynamic hosts. Works with no problems. Configuration of failover was not complicated, although you need to specify the failover peer for each pool of dynamic hosts (dhcp failover is meaningless for static IP assignments).

Yup, forgot the name! ISC it is :) Thanks, Hetz On 2/27/06, Yaron Zabary <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > TAU runs with two ISC version 3.0.2 on Linux RH3.

Re: qa question
Dogtail is another testing tool, based on Python: http://people.redhat.com/zcerza/dogtail/ It's a rather new tool which was introduced in the GNOME circles last year so it might be worth checking out.
