Subject: [Bridge] DHCP and bridge


Hello all,

I'm having a little difficulty with dhcp over the bridge. The problem is
that the bridge itself is a client of the dhcp server.  To my surprise, it
*almost* works!  The clients behind the bridge are able to lease an ip from
a dhcp server on the other side of the bridge.  But unfortunately, the
bridge machine itself is having problems getting an IP.  When I run dhcpcd
on the bridge interface, nothing seems to happen.  Oddly though, when I run
dhcpcd on the actual interface, it can lease an ip just fine.. but nothing
works.

I have a few questions:

Where can I go from here? Ideas? What could be wrong.
Is this even possible?

Id rather not have to make another linux box out of spare parts to do just
the bridging if I can get away with it.

Thanks,

Chris Leavoy
