[Server-devel] XS 0.5 Second Attempt at eth1

[Reuben K. Caron]

Now that I have DHCPD running on a clean install. I can report that it
still does not hand out IPs. When I assign my laptop ethernet adapter as
172.18.96.1 and 172.18.0.1 I do get an ARP error from the server;
however, when I bump it up one address 172.18.0.2 it still does not ping.
