Hi Chris,
Linux and freebsd you re trying, running on same hardware (nic) ?
I'm saying that cause some ISPs lock their "IP-offering"
with each client's hardware address (which is defined at first use).
Linux is on my laptop (and works ok), while freebsd is on another machine.
I had thought of that and so I tried the following:
1. while I had a connection from the laptop with an assigned ip, I pulled
out
the cable and connected it to the freebsd machine.
2. I changed the IP to the one assigned on the laptop (ed0 interface)
3. I added the gateway via /sbin/route and modified /etc/resolv.conf.
--> Now, this works ok, so I know the ISP is not locking the session
based
on the MAC address (since I didn't spoof that on FreeBSD).
So, the problem remains: dhcp doesn't work from the freebsd machine...
