The dhcp server in my case is isc-dhcpd and this doesn't happen for any Jaunty, Solaris, OSX, or Windows machines. Plus this is only on shutdown. Stopping or restarting the script while the machine is in a normal running state does what is expected of it and releases the IP. -- dhclient3 hangs on shutdown https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/571933 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to dhcp3 in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
