Binand, Not numerological considerations :) . But I was wondering if it was possible to do it. Just a thought. I dug around and I found a leases file in the location /var/run/dhclient.eth0.leases . Will it help if I delete the leases file ? I also found a dhclient.eth0.pid file in the same location. btw, this is my personal computer I am experimenting on. Is it not possible to get a fresh IP address from the ISP ? regards Ravi ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
