One of our Red Hat 7.2 workstations fail to start networking when it is configured to boot via DHCP; dhcpcd will exit with the message "timed out waiting for a valid DHCP server response." The server does appear to respond, however, as messages of the form
dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from <MAC address> via eth0 dhcpd: DHCPOFFER on <IP adrress> to <MAC address> via eth0 are written to the system log during client starup. The (client) network hardware etc. appears to work fine, as the network runs without any problem when the host is set up with a static configuration. Also, this machine has exactly the same network configuration (and also the same type of Ethernet card) as others were dynamic network setup works just fine, as far as I can tell. Any ideas what might be wrong? -- Toralf Lund <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> +47 66 85 51 22 Kongsberg Scanners AS +47 66 85 51 00 (switchboard) http://www.kscanners.no/~toralf +47 66 85 51 01 (fax) _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
