Hi Everyone,
This is the first time i write a message here and maybe this is not the place,
if i should write this in a forum please let me know…
I am an very happy user of pfsense but right now i have a little problem, i
explain you :
I’m using the last stable version.
I have dhcp server enabled and some static leases for some of my hosts. Until
here nothing special :)
There is different domains in this network so i have to set different DNS
servers and domain search suffix.
My hosts are heterogenes, there is win7, win8, mac, smartphones, tablets… when
i create a lease reservation in the dhcp settings and the machine connects it
obtains the right parameters, so everything is ok, but in fact it’s NOT :(
What happens (only for the win7 hosts, other are perfects, bad win7 nasty
nasty) after a few second, and especially when you launch i.e. win7 seem to
make some kind of new dhcp request although it already has it’s ip address and
then it looses all it’s specifics parameters, DNS servers, DNS search suffix…
it only keep its ip and gw address…
After a lot of search i found it has to deal with some kind of proxy search
that initiate a new incomplete request and when you add in your dhcp options «
252 \n » witch basically say to windows : stop asking, there is no proxy
period ! win7 keep it’s good parameter but sometimes it looses it again (i
couldn’t identify precisely when…)
The 252 option is a workaround but the solution would be dhcpd gives the whole
parameters every time it is requested to, no ?
Is it a bug ? am i doing something wrong ? please i really need help on this
Best regards,
PS Sorry for my english i hope you’ll understand me
