[dhcp-agent-devel] FASD project: Online survey launched

[<ben...@id...>]

Dear Open Source developer

I am doing a research project on "Fun and Software Development" in which I kindly invite you to participate.
You will find the online survey under http://fasd.ethz.ch/qsf/. The questionnaire consists of 53 questions and you will need about 15 minutes to complete it.

With the FASD project (Fun and Software Development) we want to define the motivational significance of fun when software developers decide to engage in Open Source projects. What is special about our research project is that a similar survey is planned with software developers in commercial firms. This procedure allows the immediate comparison between the involved individuals and the conditions of production of these two development models. Thus we hope to obtain substantial new insights to the phenomenon of Open Source Development.


With many thanks for your participation,
Benno Luthiger


PS:
The results of the survey will be published under http://www.isu.unizh.ch/fuehrung/blprojects/FASD/.
We have set up the mailing list fa...@we... for this study. Please see http://fasd.ethz.ch/qsf/mailinglist_en.html for registration to this mailing list.

[dhcp-agent-devel] dhcp-agent-0.40 errata update

[Thamer Al-H. <tm...@wh...>]

dhcp-agent-0.40 errata
---------------------

The sysconf dns configuration has a bug in it. The
/etc/resolv.conf is not truncated when written to.

This will be fixed in the next release.

Here's a patch to dhcp-agent-0.40

cd conf/dhcp-client

[dhcp-agent-devel] help: multiple dynamic pools classed by MAC address

[Steve W. <pa...@qu...>]

Hi All,

I am not subscribed, so please cc to me, or reply-all, thanks.

How do I class-out by MAC address list into multiple dynamic pools ?

IPs issued must be dynamic.

# /etc/dhcpd.conf
# /this/ list of MAC addresess go in class foo ;

class "foo" {
        match if substring (option something_unknown) = "{list-foo}";
       }

# this /other/ list of  MAC addresses go in class bar ;

class "bar" {
        match if substring (option something_unknown) = "{list-bar}";
       }

# add another class later..
#class "other" {
#        match if substring (option something_unknown) = "{list-bar}";
#       }

# and then ;

shared-network CLIENTS {
 subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0
 {


   pool {
         allow members of "foo";
         range dynamic-bootp 192.168.0.101 192.168.0.253;
           }

   pool {
        allow members of "bar";
         range dynamic-bootp 192.168.0.60 192.168.0.100;
          }

}

# and then the other fixed stuff

   host dumbass {
       hardware ethernet     00:40:95:33:13:19;
       fixed-address         192.168.0.1;
   }


Connecting/booting clients get put in appropriate subnet.

... or some other method of allocating IPs on the local LAN interface. 
Clients are generic and unknown, MAC address is known (registered by 
hand / web-site).

If I have to run dhcpd as a slave off some back-end (MySQL / RADIUS) I 
would consider that too.


TIA,
/steve
