Hi All, I wish to start the udhcp server at boot up through the start up script. I create a file S47udhcpd in /etc/init.d/ with the following contents: #!/bin/sh PKG=3D"udhcp server" STARTCMD=3D"/usr/sbin/udhcpd" STOPCMD=3D"killall udhcpd" . /etc/init.d/common This is the last commond to be executed ie just before the linux prompt ask for the login and password. When I boot the system I get the following error message "SIOCGIFADDR failed, is the interface up and configured?: Cannot assign requested address." If I give the command "udhcpd" in my /etc/profile file the server starts. Why does this happen?=20 If I am having this for a router I will need to run udhcpd the moment it comes...how will I do this?
