I'm using dhclient to obtain an IP address from my ISP. They claim that I am "hard coding" an IP because my IP doesn't seem to change. I know that dhclient keeps a database of past leases and attempts to renew the same IP whenever possible.
Is there anyway I can direct my ISP to some documentation that would make them stop getting angry with me? Is it correct to say that dhclient simply ASKS for the same IP again and if their dhcp server says "yes you may have that IP again" then and only then will it be allowed or does dhclient attempt to steal the IP back in any way? (I don't think it does). --- Landon Stewart [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
