Greetings
I can't put my finger on this one!
I load plenty of PCs and my dhcp is working perfectly (Fedora suse9 9.1 9.2 etc even a gentoo box and a centos box,
With 9.3 it takes a good 10 minutes after boot-up before the system finally gets an IP address from the server.
I have tried disabling the Susefirewall but it does exactly the same..
Any ideas as to what could be causing this.
Please note that it is not one PC I have lots of them doing it? All were loaded manually (one by one)
You might want to run ethereal, to see when the dhcp request & ack occurs or if there are any errors.
Look at the DHCP log on the DHCP server for errors as well. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 "The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners." -Ernst Jan Plugge
