RELEASE STATUS
In this release, the server and relay agent currently work well on
-NetBSD, Linux, FreeBSD, BSD/OS, Ultrix, Digital Alpha OSF/1, and SunOS
-4.1.4. They can also be run usefully on Solaris as long as only one
-broadcast network interface is configured. They also runs on QNX as
-long as only one broadcast network interface is configured and a host
-route is added from that interface to the 255.255.255.255 broadcast
-address. If you are running a Linux 2.0.30 or previous kernel, the
-DHCP daemons will only be able to operate on machines with a single
-network interface.
+NetBSD, Linux after kernel version 2.0.30, FreeBSD, BSD/OS, Ultrix,
+Digital Alpha OSF/1, Solaris and SunOS 4.1.4. They run on AIX, HPUX,
+IRIX and Linux 2.0.30 and earlier kernels but support only a single

The DHCP client currently only knows how to configure the network on
NetBSD, FreeBSD, BSD/os, Linux, Solaris and NextStep. The client
To build the DHCP Distribution, unpack the compressed tar file using
the tar utility and the gzip command - type something like:
- zcat dhcp-3.0-alpha-19990330.tar.gz |tar xvf -
+ zcat dhcp-3.0-alpha-19990408.tar.gz |tar xvf -
-Now, cd to the dhcp-3.0-alpha-19990330 subdirectory that you've just
+On BSD/OS, you have to type gzcat, not zcat, and you may run into
+similar problems on other operating systems.
+
+Now, cd to the dhcp-3.0-alpha-19990408 subdirectory that you've just
created and configure the source tree by typing:
./configure
