At boot-time it sends a request to broadcast: DHCPREQUEST on fxp0 to =20 255.255.255.255 port 67 And then it gets an DHCPACK from the gateway. (not 172.21.248.127) But then the machine tries to renew the lease I keep getting messages =20= like this: Feb 23 18:29:06 cone dhclient[1623]: DHCPREQUEST on fxp0 to =20 172.21.248.127 port 67 Feb 23 18:29:06 cone dhclient[1623]: SENDING DIRECT Feb 23 18:29:33 cone dhclient[1623]: DHCPREQUEST on fxp0 to =20 172.21.248.127 port 67 Feb 23 18:29:33 cone dhclient[1623]: SENDING DIRECT until the lease runs out and then the connection drops. I guess 172.21.248.127 is the real dhcp-server. A 'dhclient fxp0' sends a new request to 255.255.255.255 and it =20 immediately fixes the connection. -- Peter Ankerst=E5l peter@pean.org http://www.pean.org/
