9160.0. "Line mode interface for DHCP?" by CSC32::A_LICAUSE () Thu Mar 13 1997 08:47

    Is there any kind of line mode interface for dhcp?
    
    As nice as GUI's are ( and some aren't ), they fall short when trying
    to do either repetitive tasks or when tying to automate certain
    operations as with scripts.
    
    thanks,

9160.2Seems rather limited?CSC32::A_LICAUSEThu Mar 13 1997 10:5211
    Thanks...but this seems pretty limited if I'm reading it correctly.
    
    It appears the only commands are dhcpconf, dhcpparm, probenis,
    shleases, showdbs, and showhdc.....?
    
    It sounds as though if someone wanted to automate their mangement
    tasks they'd be better off manipulating the database files in
    /etc/join directly?
