hi,
just another bug/note for the push parameter i can't push a " since the
paramteres should have to be inside a "" and neither \" nor "" working.
so how can i push this:
dhcp-option NBS ""
the ' is not working since it has different meaning on the client side:-(

so what is the prefered way? ie. if i use
server 192.168.254.0 255.255.255.0
what king of address should i push?
