To get some light into the issue I've recorded the DHCP conversation done by my Mac running Mac OS X 10.4.11, and of my Ubuntu box.
Please see attached files, One for the always-successful Mac, one for a failed Ubuntu try and one for a successful Ubuntu try. They are different, while the Mac sends a "request", Ubuntu sends a "discover". ** Attachment added: "Mac OS X.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/33623127/Mac%20OS%20X.txt -- DHCP very slow and unreliable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/311968 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to dhcp3 in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
