Your gateway address is not in this subnet. That won't work.
Okay that may well be the issue ! I cannot access stuff off of the internet so that figures !
So that should be 192.168.2.1 or 192.168.2.254 ?
I would need to know how your network is configured. Please explain.
192.168.1.111 is the gateway address of the router my DHCPD server machine is connected to.
That's a very unusual IP address for a gateway.
I tried using the this DHCPD server on Windows and it was fine and could access the internet for normal operation using the 192.168.1.111 address so thought I had a working configuration.
Again very strange. What IP address was Windows getting?
How do I go about this will the DHCPD server pick up that gate way automattically use itself or do I have to do some further routing ??
Not sure what you're asking, but the gateway needs to be some network device on the same subnet that route the packets onward.
next-server 192.168.2.1;
Yes I was wondering about next-server ?
I'm really curious how it finds the tftp server without that...
