The new udhcp package that supports the -C (no client identifier) switch landed in Maverick, and it can also be installed in Lucid without modifications.
So it'd be nice if both affected sides (=the ones using the Windows DHCP server and the ones using dhcp3-server) tried the following solution. If it works for everyone, it could then be committed upstream. (I'm not using udhcpc at all so I can't test myself, I'm just trying to help in finding a correct solution for this bug). * Download and install the new udhcpc .deb from the "Builds" section in this page: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/busybox/1:1.15.3-1ubuntu1 For example, for i386 chroots the necessary file is https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/busybox/1:1.15.3-1ubuntu1/+build/1858801/+files/udhcpc_1.15.3-1ubuntu1_all.deb (I've also uploaded it to https://launchpad.net/~alkisg/+archive/ppa if someone prefers installing from a ppa instead). * In /opt/ltsp/i386/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-premount/udhcp, change the following line: if udhcpc -n -c "$clientid" -s /tmp/dhcp-script.sh -i $i $hostname_param $ip_param >/dev/null 2>&1; then to if udhcpc -n -C -s /tmp/dhcp-script.sh -i $i $hostname_param $ip_param >/dev/null 2>&1; then * Then, run sudo chroot /opt/ltsp/i386 update-initramfs -u && sudo ltsp-update-kernels reboot the client and see if the problem is solved. -- UDHCPC not fetching lease from Windows DHCP server https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/505916 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
