Guess what's broken this morning?
Code:
$ sudo dhclient run0
DHCPREQUEST on run0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67
DHCPREQUEST on run0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67

DHCPDISCOVER on run0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 15
DHCPDISCOVER on run0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 11

DHCPDISCOVER on run0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 10
No DHCPOFFERS received.
Trying recorded lease 192.168.1.109
No working leases in persistent database - sleeping.
I assumed maybe it would only work if the router had already given it the lease, but now it won't even work when I boot to ramdisk. I get the same messages (sans "trying recorded lease"). Trying a second time while in ramdisk gives me the message "Can't find free bpf: No such file or directory".
The same device has no problems under Windows or Linux (ndiswrapper). Perhaps I should replace my router. I intended to do so anyway, but not for a few months. This one doesn't support manually assigning an IP to a MAC address or I'd try that.
