Hey all,
I'm having a problem I'm not entirely sure how to solve.
I have a vnet jail that grabs an ip address from my dhcp server using
dhclient upon startup.
Once logged into that vnet jail, I start an openvpn connection with a
foreign machine.
All works from this point forth for anywhere from 20 minutes to 30 minutes
before my vpn connection gets terminated.
This is always proceeded with the following in the log files:
Aug 25 23:06:47 x dhclient[7399]: New IP Address (epair2b): 192.168.2.2
Aug 25 23:06:47 x dhclient[7400]: New Subnet Mask (epair2b): 255.255.255.0
Aug 25 23:06:47 x dhclient[7401]: New Broadcast Address (epair2b):
192.168.2.255
Aug 25 23:06:47 x dhclient[7402]: New Routers (epair2b): 192.168.2.1
dhclient isn't as verbose as I'd like, but if the logs are to be believed,
then it shouldn't be getting a new (but same) ip address every 20-30
minutes. I've since removed the dhcp assignments to get a stable vpn
connection and am still testing it, but like the idea of centrally managing
what on my network gets what ip address.
Why is dhclient behaving this way?
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance.
