Here are the [http://www.amahi.org/faq#is-dhcp-server-required DHCP tradeoffs] if you would like to only use some of the functionality.</div>
= Amahi 7 or greater (Fedora) =
* Verify [[Advanced_Settings|Advanced Settings]] is enabled ( Setup > Settings and check the box labeled Advanced Settings )
* Select '''Network''' tab, then '''Settings'''.
* Uncheck '''DHCP Server''' check box.
= Amahi 6 (Ubuntu 12.04.x) =
'''NOTE:''' See [http://bugs.amahi.org/issues/932 DHCP Server bug #932]. There is a work around included in the report.
The DHCP server in the HDA can be stopped by doing this:
* First turn on Verify [[Advanced_Settings|Advanced Settings, under Setup --> Settings]] is enabled.
* Then go to the Settings --> Servers
* Once there, find the DHCP Server and unselect both ":** Watchdog. DHCP Server is being monitored 24x7" and "** Start at Boot boot time"* Then stop it. It will be stopped forever In short, a few of the nicer features of your HDA will not be available. You can still point your machines to the DNS server in the HDA and get some of the benefits, like nice URLs for your HDA-provided services. This is not a supported configuration for things like [[Netboot]].
