Ubuntu 12.04 server. daily builds 3.2.0.20.22
I assume this could be related to dhclient, but am unsure.
My network is connected to a share server that is part of a separate
network. my 12.04 machine (im using to test and hope my input is helpful
here) keeps getting its DHCP info from the other networks DHCP server,
and NOT it's assigned IP info from my local DHCP (router).
this obviously renders everything, even ssh useless to me every time it
happens and I have to login locally and usually "dhclient -r" and
"dhclient" fixes it.
This has never happened with any machine or device on my network. not
windows (2k,xp,7) or linux variants (debian, ubuntu 10.04, 11.x, etc)
I do not want to manually assign a static ip within the linux box, my
network is more dynamic than that, and I need my router(s) to always be
the "commander"
So I don't get why 12.04, about 50% of the time is getting its network
info from the other network's dhcp. When this has never been an issue
and still isn't, with over 20 ips being dhcp assigned on my network.
Another issue with 12.04 (this may be separate or related) this happens about
half of the time my server actually picks the correct (on my network) dhcp.
network mounts that I mount in /etc/fstab, only mount about 50% of the time.
they either ALL get mounted at boot properly, or NONE of them get mounted,
usually with some errors on the local login monitor.
(mountall: disconnected from plymouth) likes to show at the " ubuntu login:"
prompt
