Description stolidmollusc 2017-02-09 00:41:59 UTC
Description of problem: Wrong package name given in Section 9.2. Configuring a DHCP Server.  The document instructs users to install package 'dhcp'; the correct package name is 'dhcp-server'.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 25

How reproducible: Read section 9.2 at https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/25/html/Networking_Guide/sec-dhcp-configuring-server.html

Steps to Reproduce:
1. See the first few lines about how to install a dhcp server.

Actual results:  The document states:
"The dhcp package contains an Internet Systems Consortium (ISC) DHCP server. Install the package as root:

~]# dnf install dhcp

Installing the dhcp package creates a file, /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf, ..."


Expected results:  All mentions of the 'dhcp' package should be changed to the 'dhcp-server' package.  I found just the 3 instances quoted above.


Additional info:  At least since Fedora 24, 'dhcp-server' is the package that provides the documented component.
