Wow, that was quick!
| Quote (Jason W @ June 04 2008,03:00) | | From what I understand port 68 must be left open to have a dynamic IP addres received through DHCP. And that it is quite normal. |
If DHCP get-address is all its for, that sounds safe enough.
| Quote (roberts @ June 04 2008,03:02) | Port 68 is from the pump -i eth0 used to fetch an IP.
If that is a concern to you then add
pkill pump
to your /opt/bootlocal.sh after obtaining your IP.
Port 68 will be closed. |
I might go ahead and kill the pump anyway, though, since I use
an arcane dialup modem for internet, and set my lan address
with ifconfig eth0 192.168.x.x
Thanx
