[-- Attachment #1 --] Hallo, My FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE machine is connected to the internet via a cable connection. And when booting (or running dhclient) I get an IP address. But when I have an IP address and my ISP wants to give me a new IP address I doesn't go the way it should. Because I don't get the new IP address, my machine continues to use the 'old' IP address. And when that happens I get an angry phone call from my ISP, and they shut me from internet for a day. So, how can I configure (dhclient.conf I guess) my machine so that it accepts this new IP address. I thought I would configure my machine so that it renews its lease every 10 hours. But I have read the man for dhclient.conf, dhcp-options and dhclient but I still am puzzled. Gr. Marcel.
