a problem with dhcp-3.0.3-28 in FC5
if a fixed ip get into Address ranges, then everything works

Comment 2 Krzysztof Rzadca 2007-07-30 17:06:39 UTC

I confirm this bug with the same kernel/dhclient version. dhclient does not work
on both network interfaces (iwl3945 wifi and r8169 ethernet).

Hello,

This is happening to me too, on a number of different machines.

Others are experimenting this bug too, please see
http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=162082

I'd rather change this to high priority, because it can render one's system
unusable (or, at least, you may easily lose remote control of it).

I suspect this is not selinux-related, because I did a full relabelling and it
won't help.


Regards,
Răzvan

Comment 4 Evaldas 2007-08-01 19:21:35 UTC

thanks
