Hi don,

I have a new Dell Optiplex XP system (Broadcom NetXtreme NIC) I set up
as a DHCP client.  When I enable the LAN interface on it, hundreds of
lines of the following show up in the server syslog.

A BIOS upgrade on the offending PC could fix your problem - it has helped us in the past with DHCP problems with a batch of fujitsu siemens PC's


Thanks for the ideas -- The installed bios is the latest available from
the Dell site.

Otherwise you could use dhcpdump to see what is being sent and recieved from the server

I will try this.
