Problem with dhcp on eth1
« on: May 08, 2002, 05:34:59 PM »
I'm running 5.1.2 with eth0 as internal and eth1 as public interface

My isp has switched from static ip to dhcp provided ip adresses.
I've have run the reconfig wizard and select dhcp (with ethernet adress).

When I connect a windows machine to the adsl modem i recive an adress but when I connect the sme server I'm not reciving an adress.

If I do an ifup eth1, I get  "Determining IP information for eth1... failed"
If I do an dhcpcd eth1, I get  "Determining IP information for eth1... failed"
I can see in the log that my ISP is giving me an DHCP_Offer but the sme server doesn't care..

But if I do an dhcpcd -t 120 eth1 it works.

Why does the sme server need a 2 min timeout and the windows machine don't?
How can I configure the sme dhcpcd startup?

Please help
