I read the upgrade guide, followed it, and have a 4.4-router in front of me.
Alas, it does not at all dish out an IP-address to an OpenSolaris client (nv98). It used to do so before, without any fail at all, ever. Immediately after the upgrade to 4.4, it fails 100%. It does dish out IP-addresses to Knoppix 5.3.1 on the very same interface of the very same machine when booted to Knoppix. I have as well restarted the dhcpd with the interface on which I want the address to be given out ('dhcpd xl0'), to no avail. 'ifconfig nge0 dhcp' on OpenSolaris also times out all the time. I only need to 'ifonfig nge0 ..' and 'route add ..', on the OpenSolaris, though, to connect to the router. Therefore it is not a hardware problem. It looks much more like a compatibility problem between OpenBSD 4.4 and (Open?)Solaris, which didn't exist before and which must not happen.

Any detail can be furnished on request,

Uwe
