DHCP client problem
Hello,
I am having problems with my Debian 3 unstable and my DHCP connection. I
use dhclient 2.0pl5-15 and it gets an address without any problem at first.
The problem comes in, when the lease expires. At that time I get
'receive_packet failed on eth0: Network is down'.
On the dhcpd side (which is a RedHat system) I get:
dhcpd: Reclaiming abandoned IP address 192.168.1.198.
dhcpd: Abandoning IP address 192.168.1.198: pinged be fore offer
dhcpd: Reclaiming abandoned IP address 192.168.1.200.
After that, the client gets a new address and everything is fine again,
until the next lease expires. The whole thing repeats every 10 minutes.
Does any1 have a clue or at least wether its a client or a server problem?
Any hints would be welcome.
TIA, Harry
