Yesterday, I installed mpd 3.18 and managed to get it working as a PPPoE server on my local LAN, to test my client. Today, I'm trying to get DHCP over PPPoE working, and not having much success. I shutdown my regular DHCP server over the em0 ethernet interface, and tried starting up dhcpd to use the ng0 interface that gets created by mpd. It complains a little about em0 and ng0 using the same subnet, but starts up and sits there, in debug mode (so I can see all messages on the console). My client starts up, successfully negotiates PPPoE and PPP and the link comes up, then I start dhcpd on ng0 (if I try to start it before the PPPoE link comes up, it complains there is no ng0, even though it shows up in ifconfig) and I can see my client sending out DHCP INFORM messages, encapsulated in PPPoE, but I get *nothing* printed from the DHCP server, as if it has not seen the DHCP messages at all. Should dhcpd be using a different interface than ng0 ? Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks, Gary
