I have been going round and round with this.
There is only one DHCP on the network have verified this by plugging a laptop in to the outport and trying to pull an address directly from the SmallWall to no avail.
I found some hacks that got me to the Shell (sorta) screen and tryied to run dhcpd where I find this

$ dhcpd restart

The intersting line is the (Can't open /usr/local/etc/dhcpd.conf: No such file or directory)I did find out that the etc directory does not exist.
the gui shows my whole reservations for mac to ip addresses however.
So now my question is what does that file look like so I can put it back in the folder where the rest of the stuff is when I do (ls) or is it some magical folder that needs magical commands to cd to that place???
For the time I will go back to the linksys router to hand out DHCP so that the rest of the network can get IPs (I had to make some routing changes to get the gateway to work since the smallwall is 192.168.3.1 and the linksys WIFI is now handling DHCP and its at 192.168.3.5
a neat shell screen and a list of working commands would have been nice to diagnose this sooner since I have been looking at this for a few months now and pulling out my hair. I like my hair and dont want it to go away any time soon.
Thanks
