thanks Duane...  but there is something really screwed up with the
dhclient out of the box. i just tried reinstalling just vary basic system
and even at the configuration prompt to set up the fxp0 when i select dhcp
nothing happens...  so i'm going back to 5.4. if i have to spend 2 more
days on something as basic as dhclient. i mean i have to eat too...

thanks...

Re: dhclient in 6.0

2006-02-03 Thread make stuff up
  hi all...  again...

  i sent this message to general questions but nobody got excited about
it.

  i just installed 6 on my t30 laptop. brand new. when trying dhclient i
get:

DHCPDISCOVER on fxp0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 5

this trys 6 times then this shows up:

No DHCPOFFERS received.
No working leases in present database - sleeping.

i run a tcpdump while requesting a lease and for every DHCPDISCOVER i get
this line:
2.  13 IP 0.0.0.0.68 > 255.255.255.255.67: UDP, length 300

then a line of:

mac.number > mac.number, Unknown Ethertype (0xb20e), length 61:

i'm typing this because i can't get the machine on line...

restarted tha laptop many times and the dhcp server too. the dhclinet on
another older laptop works fine with the same server...

i really need this solved  soon...  never seen it before... there is
nothing much on line about it. the same t30 laptop was working fine with
5.4...

thanks

dhclient in 6.0

2006-02-02 Thread make stuff up

  hi all..

  this is new - just installed 6 and here:
  # dhclient fxp0
  DHCPDISCOVER on fxp0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 5
  DHCPDISCOVER on fxp0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 8
..
 and a few other intervals...

  so if the fxp0 is up and the dhcp server is up then whats wrong with
dhclient?...
  i'm actually writing from a machine on the same dhcp server...

  thanks...
