I have LM 7.2 on one machine using a realtek 8139 10/100 Ethernet card, the DHCP host is (unfortunately) a Win2K machine with a 3Com 3C905 10/100 card using network sharing . . . When the Linux box fires up - it finds it's address no problem - and continues happily along in the boot process. When I shutdown the DHCP host, or just disconnect the ISDN internet access from the host machine . . . the Linux box seems to hang - mouse movement works, but keyboard non-responsive and nothing opens or closes . . . can't even bring up a virtual console! When I allow the Win2K host back on the Internet - the Linux box "wakes up" and continues on like nothing happened!?!?!? What is the rule of thumb about DHCP hosts, timeouts and where can I tweak these parameters if any? Many thanks in advance . . .
