Some of them simply miss their alloted IP. The "some" are not the same from time to time. The dhcpd has hardcoded their ethernetaddresses so there should be only one possible IP-number for each and every on of them. This happens at boot-time and happens at both the FreeBSD:s and the Windows:es. For BSD a reboot corrects the problem and for Windows winipcfg can ask the server for a new number corrects it. /Micke ---------------------------------- Michael Josefsson, MSEE mj@isy.liu.se This message was sent by XFMail running on FreeBSD 4.4-STABLE ---------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
