Hello All,
I'm currently turning around a problem with dhcpd to which I have yet to
find any pertinent documentation or even the slightest clue of what's
going-on.
Can anyone share some light with regards to what I may be missing? Also,
DHCP packets are not directed to this server by default ; I seem to be
getting the bootp request because I configured my AIX box to boot from my
server and even though I configured an IP address, it still wants to
launch a bootp request in order to get the filename and tftp instructions.
Ideas?
This is what I'm getting in my syslog.
dhcpd: BOOTREQUEST from xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx via eth0: BOOTP from dynamic
client and no dynamic leases
My dhcpd.conf
