how to change default network settings?

Postby gdom » Fri Mar 20, 2009 6:00 am

Theres a few things id like to do
1. disable the dhcpd (and o i tried and stopping and disabling the service but it just jumps right back)
2. change network settings to dhcp. (nope cant change em either it just pops riiight back)

the reason for this is that i already have an domain controller that acts as an dhcp among other things and having 2 dhcps on the network makes it messy when u whant to do forwardings etc .

I figure this whas done in a script somewhere.
is there something to be done?
possibly can someone tell me where i can make these changes?

the server is designed for reliability, so there are multiple mechanisms in place to make sure things work.

to stop the dhcp server we have some changes to make it easier to do, but those may take a little to be released.

in the mean time, there are three things to do:

- remove the dhcp part from /etc/monit.conf, then service monit restart
- chkconfig dhcpd off
- service dhcpd stop

hope that helps.

You have to edit the settings table in demo_development db.

Use a tool like phpMyAdmin or Webmin. Both have worked for me.

Oh, actually the settings table is not enough for some cases (like mine). You also have to edit the hdactl script.

I have 'documented' this over at http://forums.amahi.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=220
