    When I got to the Server>DHCP Server config page, I get the following error:

    The DHCP Server can only be enabled on interfaces configured with static IP addresses. Your interface is not configured with a static IP.

    I'm using a Soekris 5501-70, no wireless, pfSense-20080910-0258.img.gz, the DHCP server is actually functioning properly on two interfaces, each on its own subnet, with static leases, and WAN is receiving a DHCP address from Roadrunner.

    Any help is appreciated, and great job on everything.

        Now I get the following message:

        The DHCP Server can only be enabled on interfaces configured with static IP addresses.

        The interfaces not configured with static ip will not be shown.

        However, I still cannot configure the DHCP server on my two LAN interfaces that are giving out addresses.

        Also, if I type in the query string to configure the interface, ie, https://192.168.1.1/services_dhcp.php?if=opt1 instead of https://192.168.1.1/services_dhcp.php, I do not get the error message, but I have no options, and also still have no interfaces to choose from.

          I tested this can you please attach a screenshot of what you are describing and the interfaces part of your config.xml?

              Either you cache has stale data or your system is not fully in sync with the changes, otherwise i cannot see how this is happening in your system since i cannot replicate in 3 systems here.

              Debugging info: to verify this check that the $tabscount is getting incremented in the loop after the form is declared since you seem to have to interfaces that should be shown there.
