It sees the request from the machine, but the response doesn't seem to get back to it: ---- dhcps[408]: read 11 entries from addr-pool database dhcps[408]: read 2 entries from binding and addr-pool database dhcps[408]: read 0 entries from relay agent database dhcps[408]: udp/dhcpc: unknown service -- use default port 68 dhcps[408]: udp/dhcps: unknown service -- use default port 67 dhcps[408]: Reply to the bootp client(IP:193.62.40.183, cid:"1:0x0020af5c1e7f:193.62.40.0"). dhcps[408]: Reply to the bootp client(IP:193.62.40.183, cid:"1:0x0020af5c1e7f:193.62.40.0"). dhcps[408]: Reply to the bootp client(IP:193.62.40.183, cid:"1:0x0020af5c1e7f:193.62.40.0"). dhcps[408]: Reply to the bootp client(IP:193.62.40.183, cid:"1:0x0020af5c1e7f:193.62.40.0"). dhcps[408]: Reply to the bootp client(IP:193.62.40.183, cid:"1:0x0020af5c1e7f:193.62.40.0"). ---- The client eventually times-out. I can setup the vanilla BOOTPD and get it to reply to the client with no problems so I don't think the problem is there. Any ideas? >Yoshiro MIHIRA >Keio Univ.
