Hi guys!

I am having a DHCP problem. I have a dozen RedHat 9 workstations that are booting via a fixed address DHCP server.

The dhcpd.conf file has an entry like the following for each host:


host bob { option host-name "bob.fh.huji.ac.il"; hardware ethernet 00:0d:9d:d9:25:00; fixed-address 132.64.0.89; }


Everything works fine, but when we have an extended network outage, these client seem to hang. Once the network returns, the clients no longer can see the network. Even if I wait a few days for them to recover! My other non-dhcp clients of course recover fine once the network returns.


I assume this is related to their DHCP leases expiring. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
-tom
