Hi!

I am the maintainer of the ISC DHCP package for the Debian GNU/Linux
distribution.

I received a couple of days ago the following message from a user.
He's running kernel 2.2.6.

This is very weird, specially the MAC address. He did not say if he's
running on Ethernet, though.

Any hints or suggestions for him?

Thanks!

peloy.-

Subject: dhcp-beta issue

Hi, I started running dhcp-beta 2.0b1pl26-1 yesterday (first time dhcpd use). 
My box now is used to assign IP's to the office laptops.  This works just fine.
 However one of the NT servers in the office keeps asking for IPs and dhcp-beta
assigns one, then another, and so on.  What is even more odd is that the MAC
address shown is not a normal mac address.  Below are log snippets.

Apr 24 10:50:34 foo usr/sbin/dhcpd: Internet Software Consortium DHCP Server
V2.0b1pl26
Apr 24 10:57:08 foo usr/sbin/dhcpd: DHCPREQUEST for 209.219.162.88 from
52:41:53:20:90:e6:7f:a0:bb:8d:be:01:01:00:00:00 via eth0
Apr 24 10:57:08 foo usr/sbin/dhcpd: DHCPACK on 209.219.162.88 to
52:41:53:20:90:e6:7f:a0:bb:8d:be:01:01:00:00:00 via eth0
Apr 24 10:59:08 foo usr/sbin/dhcpd: DHCPREQUEST for 209.219.162.89 from
52:41:53:20:90:e6:7f:a0:bb:8d:be:01:02:00:00:00 via eth0
Apr 24 10:59:08 foo usr/sbin/dhcpd: DHCPACK on 209.219.162.89 to
52:41:53:20:90:e6:7f:a0:bb:8d:be:01:02:00:00:00 via eth0

The range is 85-89.  I up'ed the lease time to an hour so it would happen less
frequently (makes sense anyway).

I read the dhcp conf man page and could see no way to say "ignore this
machine", besides the MAC address is not valid, at least as far as I can see.
