DHCP/DNS

Don't want to have to remember the IP of the SkyPi and networks stuff... We start by naming the RPI as SkyPi-EQ6 (just so we are consistent with the rest of this document), but only for the wlan0 interface (the RPI's "real" name will remain SkyPi when plugged via eth0)

vim /etc/hosts 127.0.1.1 SkyPi 192.168.168.1 SkyPi-eq6

Now let's install dnsmasq and perform a minimal configuration (find and uncomment/modify the lines described below)

apt-get install dnsmasq vim /etc/dnsmasq.conf

By default, all lines are comments, so simply add/modify the following lines:

interface=wlan0 dhcp-range=192.168.168.50,192.168.168.100,12h port=0 # we don't want/need DNS

Now restart the service:

root@SkyPi:~# /etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart [ ok ] Restarting DNS forwarder and DHCP server: dnsmasq.
