Re: PCI Ethernet card (DHCP issue)


Hi,

The DHCP protocol was successful with Redboot, but fails with ecos. After analyzing the packet captures using ethereal, I found some differences in the "DHCP Discover" packet --> under Bootstrap protocol --> BootP Flags = 0x8000 (in case of ecos) & 0x0000 (in case of redboot).

In the case of redboot, the DHCP server (RH9 running my dhcpd.conf) responds with the DHCP offer soon after seeing the DHCP discover packet. But in case of ecos it responds 4 times after 4 DHCP discover packets.

Please suggest me a way to debug this issue.

I have also included the URL for the ethereal captures.

Thanks a lot,
