Hi

does dhcliebnt still work on Lubuntu, i seem to get the following when
running it

psutton@e-machines:~$ sudo dhclient
[sudo] password for psutton:

RTNETLINK answers: File exists
psutton@e-machines:~$

at one time it used to poll the router for each interface and come up
with either a new ip address or nothing at all ,  no nothing happens
apart from the above

if it helps

psutton@e-machines:~$ cat /etc/network/interfaces
# interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8)
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback


I am sure there is a file somewhere that specifies if ip addresses are
static or dynamic and allows sections to be commented or the sections
needed for static to be set manually,

Using Lubntu 12.10

Thanks

Slightly different here.

steve@Ouse:~$ sudo dhclient
[sudo] password for steve:
steve@Ouse:~$ cat /etc/network/interfaces
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
#NetworkManager#auto eth0
#NetworkManager#iface eth0 inet dhcp
steve@Ouse:~$

Not sure what it all means.

I use the router to allocate certain addresses to certain machines, file severs mainly, the rest get what they given.
