I did some digging and came up with this little nugget that has me
more confused than ever.
http://www.dhs.org/pipermail/systalk/1999-July/007592.html
"In order for dhcpd to work correctly with picky DHCP clients (e.g.,
Windows 95), it must be able to send packets with an IP destination
address of 255.255.255.255. Unfortunately, Linux insists on changing
255.255.255.255 into the local subnet broadcast address (here, that's
192.5.5.223). This results in a DHCP protocol violation, and while
many DHCP clients don't notice the problem, some (e.g., all Microsoft
DHCP clients) do. Clients that have this problem will appear not to
see DHCPOFFER messages from the server.
It is possible to work around this problem on some versions of Linux
by creating a host route from your network interface address to
255.255.255.255. The command you need to use to do this on Linux
varies from version to version. The easiest version is:
route add -host 255.255.255.255 dev eth0"
Someone please help me out here. I have downloaded and tried every
version of dhcrelay from 1.1 to 1.4 and they all give the same error when
they load.
Thanks in advance.

I found the source of the error in the startup script. But I do not
know have to solve it. This is what it looks like:
Case "$1" in
Start)
Echo starting dhcrelay on $ifs: "
For if in 'echo $ifs'; do
Route add -host 255.255.255.255 dev $if
ix="-I $if "
i=$i$ix
done
/usr/sbin/dhcrelay -q -p $port $servers $I
;;
stop)
Can someone please help me correct this? Thanks in advance.
Troy

Could you please send me a link to the dhcrelay.lrp package that you
use?

I suspect the startup script in the dhcrelay package you used calls the
route command (I have no idea why it would do this), but your distro
doesn't provide "route."
I don't call route or ip in my dhcrelay startup script, so I can't tell
you how to fix it (if that is your problem), but look for a "route"
command and replace it with the equivalent "ip" command.
