....but onto the next problem. My ISP asks me to run a dhcp system to get my (static) IP address, and recently there have been an outbreak of disconnections that show as dhclient failing to get a response Aug 17 10:54:35 snout dhclient: DHCPREQUEST on eth1 to 10.0.0.2 port 67 Aug 17 10:54:35 snout dhclient: DHCPNAK from 10.0.0.2 Aug 17 10:54:35 snout dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on eth1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 6 Aug 17 10:54:41 snout dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on eth1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 15 Aug 17 10:54:56 snout dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on eth1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 17 Aug 17 10:55:13 snout dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on eth1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 21 Aug 17 10:55:34 snout dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on eth1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 2 Aug 17 10:55:36 snout dhclient: No DHCPOFFERS received. Aug 17 10:55:36 snout dhclient: No working leases in persistent database. Aug 17 10:55:36 snout dhclient: Sleeping.
and it never finds anything after waking,and just cycles this. I can run a new dhclient and it is OK. As I am not always physically here inside the firewall I really need the dhclient to restart if it fails. Is there an obvious way of doing this? ==John ffitch -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
