Re: [Leaf-user] Dhclient Release
Yes, that is very true, but certain circumstances limit ones ability to do this. In particular, a friend is running an old 486 which was converted to a LEAF/LRP box because it had SCSI (the SCSI card died) and no on board IDE. The nics are EISA - and since he doesn't have a nic with a configurable MAC or a mobo that had EISA slots he's either without an Internet connection for 3-4 days or has to find an alternative method to release his IP (i.e. finding a SCSI card that is compatible with an OEM - and thus - non-configurable BIOS). While these circumstances are rare - there are other more likely circumstances that could affect other usesr. Say upgrading from an older 486 to a Pentium based system and moving from ISA based cards to PCI - in such a case an IP release option would save time / heartache during the upgrade.

As far as I can tell Dhclient 2.x doesn't have the ability to force an IP release, which is necessary for some cable modem users. It seems that @home (or at least Rogers@home) has decided that MACs should be cached for 3-4 days in the headend modem, unless specifically released by the client.

[Leaf-user] AMD PCNET
Hi all, I have an old Compaq 5100 with an embedded AMD PCNET ethernet card. Does anybody know if which module to use and if this is a PCI card?? Thanks in advance Sergio D.

RE: [Leaf-user] AMD PCNET
First, I don't have a Compaq running LEAF, but I do have NIC cards that have the same chipset. Have you tried the PCNet32 module? Another that works for the VLB cards that I have that use the PCNet chip is the lance.o module. Supposedly the PCNet32 module should work for me, but it doesn't. The lance.o is a generic replacement from what I understand.

Re: [Leaf-user] AMD PCNET
I've setup a Compaq 5100 with LRP in past and successfully used the pcnet32 module.
