Hello Craig,
Thanks for your help.

Does "nmblookup HOSTNAME" return the correct IP address for that
host? See comments for the $Conf{NmbLookupFindHostCmd} option for
arguments you might need to add.
My clients are in another subnet. I can't ping "name" nor nmblook "name"
or nmblookup -B "broadcast"
If so, then its IP address should be discovered correctly without the
dhcp flag. (In almost all cases it's not necessary to use the dhcp flag.)
I'm afraid i'm in this special case, i need to use dhcp discovery loop.
btw, dhcp flag works as intended, but only in the first wake up loop
after service start.
Like i said earlier, i suspect a sort of corruption of $host array by
dhcp datas.
Something like this :
1st QueueAllPC after service start :
{
$host loop is clean and run only with non-dhcp flags clients,
adding tasks to @BGQueue;
$dhcp loop run and adds BackupPC_dump -d (ip address) to @BGQueue;
something fills $host with dhcp flagged clients ?
}
Others QueueAllPC :
{
$host loop is perhaps corrupted and adds _all_ clients, including
dhcp ones, adding tasks BackupPC_dump (ip address) to @BGQueue;
$dhcp loop run and adds BackupPC_dump -d (ip address) to @BGQueue,
but create duplicates jobs of $host loop who are canceled later in
@BGQueue processing loop;
}
I mostly understand perl code, but i need to dump $host array to log
between the two loops and dont know how to print full $host array to LOG
(or elsewhere) to be sure there is a bug. (will try print
join("\n",$host),"\n"; monday)
I think it's essential to note that dhcp backup is ok if QueueAllPC
loops are switched ($dhcp loop first, then $host loop), except if there
is an ip address in machines list who's part of dhcp range. (problem
inverted, jobs in the first loop deny duplicates in the second loop)
I suspect a bug in dhcp stuff.
Thanks
JM
