OMAPI version 0.01 ================== This is the OMAPI::DHCP Module. It's a very early release module to be used for interfacing to the OMAPI interface of the ISC DHCP server. For those that don't know, the OMAPI interface allows remote management of the state of the DHCP server, including host entries, lease info etc. PREREQUISITES: To compile this module you will need the libdst.a and libdhcp.a library archives from the ISC DHCP release. I downloaded the ISC dhcpd sources (www.isc.org), and did a './configure' and 'make'. The resultant files were then available in: (this is solaris) /some/temp/place/dhcp-3.0.1rc9/work.sunos5/common/libdhcp.a /some/temp/place/dhcp-3.0.1rc9/work.sunos5/dst/libdst.a for others, try this to find them: $ cd /some/temp/place/dhcp-3.0.1rc9/ $ find . -name \*.a -print I copied them to /usr/local/lib/ before compiling this module. INSTALLATION (see prerequisites above first!) To install this module type the following: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install 'make test' will probably report failures, but so long as you don't get compile, link,library etc errors, you should be fine, as the make test makes some wrong assumptions. DEPENDENCIES A C compiler. I recommend gcc. It needs to be the same compiler that was used to compile your perl. COPYRIGHT AND LICENCE Copyright (C) 2002 A. U.
