http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=516459 Summary: DHCP lease time too short Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: x86 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Network AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: branislav.klocok@orava.sk QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/4.2; Linux) KHTML/4.2.4 (like Gecko) SUSE Since several months I was experiencing problems with network connection in my office, with dhcp server network. Always when I received these problems a message about dhclient: bound to AA.BB.CC.DD -- renewal in xxx seconds. When I checked the client-test settings on the server, the lease time was 432000, but when I was checking the sys logs the lease time was only 3600 and the constant renewing of the IP was causing the connectivity problems. I have found this setting in /etc/dhclient.conf: send dhcp-lease-time 3600; After commenting this line the system works well. Hope this helps anyone.
