Summary: Bootp and dhcp client for automatic IP configuration |
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) and BOOTP (Boot Protocol) are protocols which allow individual devices on an IP network to get their own network configuration information (IP address, subnetmask, broadcast address, etc.) from network servers. The overall purpose of DHCP and BOOTP is to make it easier to administer a large network. Pump is a combined BOOTP and DHCP client daemon, which allows your machine to retrieve configuration information from a server. You should install this package if you are on a network which uses BOOTP or DHCP.

* Thu Apr 27 2000 Fritz Elfert <felfert@to.com> - rebuilt with gcc 2.95.2-3 * Sat Mar 18 2000 Fritz Elfert <felfert@to.com> - rebuilt with new compiler * Sun Feb 20 2000 Fritz Elfert <felfert@to.com> - rebuilt against new glibc * Sat Feb 05 2000 Fritz Elfert <felfert@to.com> - Linux/390 port * Tue Sep 14 1999 Michael K. Johnson <johnsonm@redhat.com> - pump processes cannot accumulate because of strange file descriptors (bug only showed up under rp3) * Tue Sep 07 1999 Bill Nottingham <notting@redhat.com> - add simple network configurator * Wed Jun 23 1999 Erik Troan <ewt@redhat.com> - patch from Sten Drescher for syslog debugging info - patch from Sten Drescher to not look past end of dhcp packet for options - patches form Alan Cox for cleanups, malloc failures, and proper udp checksums - handle replies with more then 3 dns servers specified - resend dhcp_discover with proper options field - shrank dhcp_vendor_length to 312 for rfc compliance (thanks to Ben Reed) - added support for a config file - don't replace search pass in /etc/resolv.conf unless we have a better one - bringing down a device didn't work properly * Sat May 29 1999 Erik Troan <ewt@redhat.com> - bootp interfaces weren't being brought down properly - segv could result if no domain name was given * Sat May 08 1999 Erik Troan <ewt@redhat.com> - fixed some file descriptor leakage * Thu May 06 1999 Erik Troan <ewt@redhat.com> - set option list so we'll work with NT - tried to add a -h option, but I have no way of testing it :-( * Wed Apr 28 1999 Erik Troan <ewt@redhat.com> - closing fd 1 is important * Mon Apr 19 1999 Bill Nottingham <notting@redhat.com> - don't obsolete dhcpcd * Tue Apr 06 1999 Erik Troan <ewt@redhat.com> - retry code didn't handle failure terribly gracefully * Tue Mar 30 1999 Erik Troan <ewt@redhat.com> - added --lookup-hostname - generate a DNS search path based on full domain set - use raw socket for revieving reply; this lets us work properly on 2.2 kernels when we recieve unicast replies from the bootp server * Mon Mar 22 1999 Erik Troan <ewt@redhat.com> - it was always requesting a 20 second lease * Mon Mar 22 1999 Michael K. Johnson <johnsonm@redhat.com> - added minimal man page /usr/man/man8/pump.8
