Hi,
For the record, after more investigation, this appears not to be
related to the kernel at all (sorry) but ot a misbehaving DHCP server
that only answers on broadcast. My ISP must have changed its config.
$ cat /var/log/daemon.log.1 /var/log/daemon.log 2>/dev/null | grep
dhclient | cut -d':' -f4- | uniq -c
18225 DHCPREQUEST on eth0 to 82.224.x.y port 67
1 DHCPREQUEST on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67
1 DHCPACK from 82.224.x.y
1 bound to 82.224.z.p -- renewal in 249667 seconds.
15075 DHCPREQUEST on eth0 to 82.224.x.y port 67
# dhcping -v -s 255.255.255.255
Got answer from: 82.224.x.y
received from 82.224.x.y, expected from 255.255.255.255
no answer
# dhcping -v -s 82.224.x.y
no answer
Not sure how to fix this (contact my ISP or DHCP client option), but
at least this is not kernel related.
Alex
