DHCP server (Debian Wheezy)

Hi.
I think the troubleshooting section is the right one. Mods are free to move anyway.
I just installed the dhcp server called dhcp3-server.
After installing it tried to auto-start and failed.
There is no dhcp related log in /var/log so I don't know where to look for debug info.
There is no conf in /etc/dhcp3
There is a /etc/dhcp

Should I remove the dhcp folder? Or is it part of the package?

Also there is not /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server so I can't start/stop the service.
More to the point, under init.d there is nothing with dhcp in the name.

If you search packages.debian.org (assuming you are using standard armel)

You'll see that dhcp3-server is a virtual package provided by isc-dhcp-server

The list of files provided by that package is here:

http://packages.debian.org/wheezy/armel ... r/filelist

Or you could just use dnsmasq (probably more suitable to a small foot-print target like rpi).

Thank you for the information, I'll have a look.
Been using dnsmasq for quite some time on a Netgear Readynas NV+, but has since been superceded by DAP which I could not find for debian.
If there were DAP I could easily copy the config files over.
