Root barnacle working again?

i guess so because that is how i'm connected to the internet... i'm on cm7 nightly 96... just got a hair up my ass as my wife is the one with the dx but i'm the one who has been modding it and whatnot and i got tired of being tethered by the usb and then hearing in my ear that she wants her phone back for this/that blah blah blah...

and after messing with the settings a bit (not sure how the changes i made actually CHANGED anything) but here i am connected w/ my linux desktop... connection isn't as stable or quick as my easytether connection but hey, i can still use the internet for the most part....

last time i tried barnacle a bunch of verizon crap tried to take over, but i was on the liberty rom at the time and i guess cm7 got rid of whatever...

hope this maybe helps others out as well
 
Is anyone else having this issue. I did the procedures described in this thread ( http://androidforums.com/droid-x-al...ad-602-sbf-root-process-updated-9-9-11-a.html ) and when I start Barnacle Wifi Tether I keep getting this

DHCP: Could not bind to DHCP port: Address already in use
followed by
NAT: restart: Network is down.

Can anyone help with this. I did the steps indicated word for word... but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get this to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
