Noted one system in particular was having network issues, ping to the IP was good, ping from the IP was problematic, lots of dropping pings in about 25 second groups/blocks. Also having trouble maintaining SSH connection into the host, and host keys needed to be removed and reaccepted. On a hunch I checked the dhcp log and found two different MAC addresses receiving the same IP.

If the non-received MAC received the IP wouldn't the MAC with the reservation still cause a ping test for availability to be performed? I can't think of any other way this could have happened. Can anyone help me to understand what actually happened and how best to prevent similar events in the future? thanks in advance, Brian Brian Cuttler, System and Network Administration Wadsworth Center, NYS Department of Health Albany, NY 12201 POB 509 brian.cutt...@health.ny.gov<mailto:brian.cutt...@health.ny.gov> 518 486-1697 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
