Since a recent update to dhpcd, my logs are filling up with these messages (every 30 seconds). The previous version wasnt so verbose, but I cant see where to modify the behaviour of the newer version - there seems like there is no quiet flag. Any suggestions? Apr 22 20:34:22 moriah dhcpcd[19738]: eth0: renewing lease of 203.59.216.218 Apr 22 20:34:22 moriah dhcpcd[19738]: eth0: leased xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx for 60 seconds Apr 22 20:34:22 moriah dhcpcd[19738]: eth0: adding IP address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/24 Apr 22 20:34:22 moriah dhcpcd[19738]: eth0: adding default route via xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx metric 0 Maybe there is something I'm missing but the first line says that dhcpcd is *renewing* the lease on eth0. If that's in fact what is happening every 30-60 seconds, then there is something wrong with what dhcpcd received/interpreted the lease duration to be. The second line seems to confirm this in that dhcpcd believes it leased the received address for 60 seconds. It looks like either the dhcp server's lease duration is badly misconfigured, or dhcpcd is not interpreting the data it receives from the dhcp server correctly wrt lease duration.
