Fedora breaks dhcpd, RH9 doesn't?

Thanks, Mike, however....
Haven't tried that yet, because the firewall script (which I haven't posted, because of sheer size, but it's basically here:
http://www.linux.org/docs/ldp/howto/IP-Masquerade-HOWTO/stronger-firewall-examples.html
) is also identical when using RH9 and Fedora 1. I'm pretty strict with the First Written Law Of Engineering (i.e., if it wasn't written down, it didn't happen!)and every step's documented.
I will try when I get home - and can pull the Internet socket out!

But I've a feeling it's a compatibility someplace.

Daft Q. but i'm assuming dhcpd's built into FC1's kernel?? Not-too-brave assumption, but...
