Just to say that I see the same problem on two newly installed Hardy Heron x86_64 servers.
May 8 09:39:43 server1 dhclient: DHCPACK of 10.10.10.10 from 10.10.10.1 May 8 09:39:43 server1 dhclient: can't create /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.eth0.leases: Permission denied May 8 09:39:43 server1 dhclient: bound to 10.10.10.10 -- renewal in 140 seconds. May 8 09:39:00 cia dhclient: DHCPACK of 10.10.10.11 from 10.10.10.1 May 8 09:39:00 cia dhclient: can't create /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.eth0.leases: Permission denied May 8 09:39:00 cia dhclient: bound to 10.10.10.11 -- renewal in 118 seconds. The process runs with uid dhcp and the /var/lib/dhcp3/ has : # ls -alh /var/lib/dhcp3/ total 8.0K drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K 2008-05-06 14:27 . drwxr-xr-x 23 root root 4.0K 2008-05-07 19:46 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2008-05-06 14:27 dhclient.leases I just cant see that the process ever would be able to write to that dir :) I chown to dhcp and the "error" messages in my logs goes away (Im happy).
