I seem to be having the same symptoms Ed had, but my DHCP server already
used long, but not infinite, leases.
Looking at the logfile, I see this
Jul 24 10:41:46 Server dhcpd: overriding dhcp-renewal-time for 0.0.0.0.
Jul 24 10:41:46 Server dhcpd: overriding dhcp-rebinding-time for 0.0.0.0.
Jul 24 10:41:46 Server dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 00:0c:29:c8:02:d9 via eth0
Jul 24 10:41:46 Server dhcpd: DHCPOFFER on 10.0.253.255 to 00:0c:29:c8:02:d9
via eth0
repeated. If I enable renewal-time and rebinding-time in the config file,
as I have here, the first two lines appear. For some reason the offered IP
seems to differ from the IP the client is usually offered during a normal
boot. If anyone has any idea on why the offer isn't accepted, please let me
know. I tried this on a VMWare system and an actual system and got the same
problems.
Here is my dhcp configuration:
ddns-update-style none;
option domain-name-servers 209.60.252.5, 64.55.192.20;
default-lease-time 7200; #50000000;
#max-lease-time 100000000;
#Sugusted by Microsoft
option dhcp-rebinding-time 300;
option dhcp-renewal-time 300;
#ddns-update-style interim;
one-lease-per-client on;
authoritative;
subnet 10.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 {
range 10.0.0.2 10.0.254.254;
option routers 10.0.0.1;
allow bootp;
#allow booting; #added
next-server 10.10.1.1;
option vendor-encapsulated-options ff;
option root-path "/opt/ltsp/i386";
if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9) = "PXEClient"
{
filename "/tftpboot/pxelinux.0";
# filename "/tftpboot/eb-5[1].0.10-amdhomepna.lzpxe"; # -VMWare
# filename "/tftpboot/eb-5[1].0.10-rtl8139.lzpxe"; # -Bobby
}
else if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9) = "Etherboot"
{
filename "/tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.21-ltsp-1";
}
host paul {
hardware ethernet 00:20:18:d8:1b:dd;
fixed-address 10.0.0.1;
}
}
