This has fixed for me somewhere between version 0.7.1 and 0.7.998. The older version used to delete the lease file in /var/lib/dhclient/, so for sure it could not request the same address. Which NM version do you have? _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
