Hello,
I have just noticed a strange anomaly. After migrating my dhcpd server from a Fedora box to Suse, none of my Vista users can get IP addresses.
Has anyone else experienced this and if so, do you no of a solution?
Thank you,
James
Early on there was a bug in dhcp on 11.0 where dhcp would not update dns. See: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=404663
I thought it was fixed, but it is still listed as new, so I guess it's still there. I bet that's your problem.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thanks David. I gave the Vista machines static IP addresses. What is odd is that the Vista machines can not find the dhcp server. I don't see any requests from the Vista machines in the dhcp server logs. Is there a dhcp server broadcast that I need to set in the server that the Vista machines can recognize?

James, I think I found what you need. This looks like the solution to make Vista broadcast for an IP: http://www.techsupportforum.com/networking-forum/networking-support/310326-v... There are two solutions provided with the MS kb articles referenced. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
