I believe I am still affected by this bug. $ dhclient --version isc-dhclient-4.3.3
My lease is for 24 hours and every day, I get disconnected. If I disconnect and reconnect the Ethernet cable, connection is restored. kern.log shows this pattern: Jan 24 03:17:12 kubuntu NetworkManager[1132]: <info> [1485220632.3687] address 10.0.0.6 Jan 24 03:17:12 kubuntu NetworkManager[1132]: <info> [1485220632.3957] plen 24 (255.255.255.0) Jan 24 03:17:12 kubuntu NetworkManager[1132]: <info> [1485220632.3957] gateway 10.0.0.200 Jan 24 03:17:12 kubuntu NetworkManager[1132]: <info> [1485220632.3957] server identifier 10.0.0.200 Jan 24 03:17:12 kubuntu NetworkManager[1132]: <info> [1485220632.3958] lease time 86400 Jan 24 03:17:12 kubuntu NetworkManager[1132]: <info> [1485220632.3958] hostname 'kubuntu' Jan 24 03:17:12 kubuntu NetworkManager[1132]: <info> [1485220632.3958] nameserver '8.8.8.8' Jan 24 03:17:12 kubuntu NetworkManager[1132]: <info> [1485220632.3958] nameserver '10.0.0.200' Jan 24 03:17:12 kubuntu NetworkManager[1132]: <info> [1485220632.4108] dhcp4 (enp1s0): state changed bound -> bound Jan 25 03:18:24 kubuntu kernel: [377372.984065] CIFS VFS: Server 10.0.0.2 has not responded in 120 seconds. Reconnecting... You can see that on Jan 24 at 3:17 I got a 24 hour lease. On Jan 25 at 3:18, almost exactly 24 hours later, I get a network error. There is nothing in between. This pattern repeats itself every day at around the same time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1551351 Title: dhclient does not renew leases To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bind9/+bug/1551351/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
