I have an old Linksys WUSB54G USB wireless card lying around, and occasionally I like to use it as an access point for my laptop. For assigning IP addresses I use dhcp3-server. The only problem is that the server attempts to start itself up on boot, which I do not want- I want to start it up manually if I need it. how to disable this service on boot?

I have followed the ubuntu guide for setting up a dhcp3-server server for my internal network, I have installed dhcp3-server, configured it refuse to start, here are some background:This is my /etc/default/dhcp3-server:
# Defaults for dhcp initscript
# sourced by /etc/init.d/dhcp
# installed at /etc/default/dhcp3-server by the maintainer scripts

I've never had this much trouble, but maybe it's because I have not setup a dhcp3-server in some time.
My server has three NIC cards. The Internet connection is on eth2, and I'm trying to get connect other computers to the server through eth0.
It's suppose to be relatively easy, unless I'm assigning specifics, right?

I'm troubling setting up my dhcp3-server.Although I've configured "option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.1" in my dhcpd.conf my windows-xp-clients dns-server address is set to 192.186.1.1.This is strange! All other things seem to work correctly.This is my dhcpd.conf:
Code:
ddns-updates on;
ddns-update-style interim;
[code].....
I would like to set a double range of IP address with my DHCP3-server. Now, I have eth0 (which is my only network card) with this IP address : 172.16.93.1 and I have created a second interface eth0:1 with this address: 192.168.3.1. The goal is to give an IP address 172.16.93.X to phones (with option 66) and the IP address 192.168.3.X to the computers.
This is my DHCPD.conf :
ddns-update-style none;
option domain-name "mycompany.com";
option domain-name-servers 172.16.93.1;
default-lease-time 3600;
max-lease-time 2347200;
authoritative;
log-facility local7;
option ip-forwarding off;
default-lease-time 20;
max-lease-time 20; .....
Right now my DHCP server work fine, (I means, no error at the startup ) but the server give always the same kind of IP address, whatever if it's a phone or a computer. I notice something "wired", if I put the :
subnet 192.168.3.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.3.100 192.168.3.199;
option routers 192.168.3.254; }
(Which is first in the dhcpd.conf) after the "subnet 172.16.93.0 netmask 255.255.255.0", the server will give IP address 172.16.93.X at all the clients. Is it possible to give more than one IP range with one network card at the same time? And how set the option 66 to only give IP address (172.16.93.X) to the phones?
I've looked quite a bit, but didn't find an answer.
I have a Thinkpad x61s which comes with a "Sierra Wireless Mini Card module".
When I start up my computer, I get prompted for a PUK / PIN.
"Unlocking SIM PUK required" (sorry, this is a direct translation of the French, might not be the exact same words in English)
With three fields to fill:
Code PUK
New PIN Code
Reenter new PIN Code.
I don't have a card in my computer, and broadband mobile is not activated in networkmanager.
Does anyone have an idea how I can disable this prompt (I don't intend to put in a SIM card before some time).
I'm using ubuntu 10.04, Im going to setup LTSP sever, But I cant start dhcp3 server this errors are come, how can I fix this this error comes when I tried to start dhcp3 server

I have dhcp3-server (isc-dhcp-server) installed on my Debian and now I got a question about how it's giving the IP addresses to new devices.
For example: I connected my laptop and dhcp server gave me 192.168.1.5 address. Will it always give me the same ip address when I connect my laptop or it will eventually change after some time (week-month)? If it's not changing it, then I am wrong about this.
BUT...If I am somehow correct and if it will change in a week and give me another random (like 192.168.1.8) IP even I won't change my laptop network adapter, is it possible to configure dhcp server to always give same IP address depending on what MAC it is?
To make it clear, I want that when I connect new device (new laptop/pc) dhcp server would give it random IP but same time it would note the MAC address and never change the IP on that MAC.
I know about MAC filters, but setting filters is when you know MAC address since beginning and want to assign IP for it, but in my situation I don't know the MAC address.
I need to create a network boot from 1 laptop to another, with a crossover ethernet cable between them, no routers no nothing, my computer is supposed to be the server. I followed half dozen tutorials over the internet but I think my major problem is with the dhcp serverfollowed this tutorial[URL]but when the client boots it makes several dhcp requests but doesn't respondwireshark capture looks something like this until the client times out

I'm writing because my ubuntu server has started with troubles .
It's running Linux 2.6.32-29-generic-pae kernel for ubuntu server 10.04 and after the last update it stopped from giving addresses on clients connected.
Dhcp3 server it's running and the conf files are fine, but i can only use static addresses assignation now...
Also MYSQL has stopped working (installed for Bacula purpose) but now the dhcp problem is the biggest issue. I work in an office where dhcp is fundamental, too much clients (about 15) that are personal laptops also (so static assignation for clients is not a good choose).
Please any one could help me? It's two days I'm trying to figure it out without success.
also tried removing and reinstalling dhcp3-serer...no way.
Here are my conf files code...
Have DHCP3 running on an ubuntu server. Using config of the below but the 10.1.1.2 address is being given to a windows pc (which does not have that MAC address). Tried getting windows to release ip address, then clearing the lease file and restarting dhcp3 service, then renewing dhcp request from windows, but address 10.1.1.2 is still given.

I been trying to set up a DHCP3-server on my brand new learning Ubuntu 11.04 server. I can connect when i put the IP infomation in manually, so I know everything else is working, just got to fix the DHCP problem before I put the machine into production on my home LAN. Can someone tell me if these config files located at /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf and another at /etc/default/dhcp3-server are correct? eth1 is the NIC that will be the LAN side of the network, I double checked that...

Hey guys. I have a client computer PXE booting from my host computer and it is supposed to give the client the ip address 172.16.0.100 however instead it gives it the ip address 172.16.0.208.
I have this set up working with two other computers and there is no noticeable difference other than mac addresses for the network card.
Here is an extract from my '/etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf' file...
ddns-update-style-none;
option domain-name "example.org";
default-lease-time 600;
max-lease-time 7200;
[Code]....
I have quadruple checked the mac address of the client and it is definitely "00:07:E9:32:16:81" so why is it not giving it the IP address that I have specified?
ver: 9.10 how do I restart dhcp3 after changing dhcpd.conf?

I am no longer using bind9, but now using the installation-defaults nameserver and dhcp and trying to get a handle on how things ought to be setup properly. My previous attempts was a disaster.}
Coming fresh out of a newly installed 10.4, I obviously was able to get network connectivity but then I ran into trouble the minute that I tried to change eth0/eth1 connections via network-manager's applet. What I found was, that when I attempted to define static connections, all bets were off. It seems that once one attempts to change eth0/eth1 which are wired devices, I was no longer able to recover my network connectivity!
I was however able to setup a wireless connection, so in this way I was able to get back network (and Internet) connectivity, and write this thread on this forum. I notice also, that there is no longer 'Networks' in the System->Administration menus! Geez, what the hell is going on? how to properly configure my static wired connection? Networks in 10.4 have really changed alot!
Had problems with internet and deleted this by mistake now how do I get it back? note that I have no internet access so I cannot use Synaptic.

I didn't even know it was on until I accidentally connected to it. I tried searching the internet, and it seems that all I should have to do is comment out the line:
Code: Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server restart sshd and it shouldn't work anymore.....except it does. Thinking that /etc/init.d/ssh restart may not have worked, I restarted the machine, but I can still connect over sFTP.
I currently got Ubuntu 10.0.4 server edition running on my server. I got 2 network cards in it. One for (eth0) the pppoe connection and the other one (eth1) for dhcp and network.
When i installed dhcpd3 server a couple of days ago, it wouldn't start. So i searched the web and came on the conclusion that i have to do " sudo ifconfig eth1 down sudo ifconfig eth1 up 192.168.0.1"
Problem is i don't have connection with this pc all the time. So if i have to restart it, the dhcp server won't start.
I've just installed the ubuntu server system on an old PC i'm going to be using as, you guessed it, a server. Because I like (some) graphical tools while configuring I also installed ubuntu-desktop on it afterwards.
The only problem is that I want to keep ubuntu-desktop, but that I don't want to boot into the (memory consuming) graphical interface by default.Does anyone know how to do that? (set the default boot to command-prompt). Also, does anyone have tips on packages I c an safely remove to clear up space and memory? (Like: openoffice, Evolution,Rhythmbox etc. are very obvious, but maybe some more hidden services and alike? Networkmanager e.g.?)
I'm having a little problem because I've installed xampp, but can't start it because it seems there's already an apache installation in my ubuntu

Now I'd like to know how to stop this apache, remove from startup, and uninstall safely so I use xampp's apache instead.
I'm using Kubuntu 10.10 and since I don't need Bluetooth I've disable startup for BlueDevil. Can I also disable startup for obexftp, or is it require by other processes?
