    Hi,

    Is there a way to be able to use multiple DHCP servers with DHCP relay ?
    We're running Windows Server DHCP for various reasons, but we need to have a fallback DHCP-server in case
    the first one fails.
    Via the WebUI I'm unable to set more then one IP it appears :(

    Is it perhaps 'hackable' through the config w/o breaking anything ? (besides not being able to modify it again via the WebUI ofcourse)

    Thanks !

      Not possible without changing/adding PHP code yourself.  There is a feature request open, it's something that will be in 2.0.

        Thanks…any pointers of what (files) to change if I'd like to modify the xml and init-script that starts this ?
        Or maybe it's better to disable it via the WebUI and run it from /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ perhaps.

          Probably easiest to disable and run manually, check dhcrelay man page for specifics.
