I suspect that what you are looking for is something that is just looking for DHCP traffic, but doesnąt actually grab a lease. I donąt think that there is a current port for this but this program http://dhcp-agent.sourceforge.net/ but dhcp-agent alleges to have a sniffer option. http://dhcp-agent.sourceforge.net/man/dhcp-sniff.1.html I havenąt used it but I recall stumbling upon this a while back when I was looking for the same. If you try it out, let me know if it works. -J On 5/12/08 9:34 AM, "Wojciech Puchar" <wojtek@wojtek.tensor.gdynia.pl> wrote: > is there an option in dhclient (or other program) to try getting IP > address but - don't set anything in system. > > i mean something to just check for dhcp servers. > > or maybe something that just detects what DHCP servers are available. > > > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" > -- Johan Dowdy - CISSP Senior Systems Administrator nCircle Network Security 415.318.2880 "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." -- Arthur C.
