i use dnsmasq on a gentoo box with 2 network cards as my router has only 1 network slot. however i cannt seem to get my laptop (which has a wireless card and a network card) to get an ip from the gentoo box (it works on my main system which runs windows and fedora core 5) . The gentoo box serves the ip of 192.168.2.100.
here is my dnsmasq.conf
Code Sample
domain-needed
bogus-priv
interface=eth1
dhcp-range=192.168.2.100,192.168.2.100,72h


It is not a network card problem on my laptop as the laptop can get an ip from the hardware router (came with the internet connection). I have no idea whats wrong. any suggestions?
thanks
