This is probably more of a Windows question (apologies for any

someone out there has seen this or has an idea.
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.
<SNIP log output>
This continues indefinitely -- while the XP box continues to think
it's acquiring an address. It continues until I disable the
interface. Everything works if I give it a static address.
What if you configure dhcpd to give it a fixed address?
An interesting question. That works. But what does it mean?
