Re: [leaf-user] dhclient to dchp server handshaking

[Greg Morgan]

John,

Based on these links that google coughed up, I'd try creating a new diskette and reconfiguring your router. Please look at the last link especially. Part of the reply message is quoted below. When a person questions the software integrity on a LEAF diskette distributing, it could be a failing floppy. The other option as noted below is that the network card is bad.

I hope this angle helps,
Greg Morgan

This means that the client mentioned afterwards is sending more bytes
than it says it's sending, which indicates a bug in its IP stack. So
I'd be very suspicious of the software running on that client,
although this particular problem doesn't actually do any harm.

This means that the packet's corrupt for some reason. Maybe the
network card in the device is bad, or maybe the software running on it
is.
