dhclient configuration ?
I try to set DHCP CLIENT in OPENBSD system.
I have box called ALIX6E1, in the box i have two INTERFACES (VR0, VR1). I try to set DHclinet on VR0 INTERFACE. I connect the box to my laptop. More over the thinking is to allow sharing between the wireless card and the network card on my laptop. Somehow I dont accept any address in VR0,No communication between the two cards in the laptop .( no route between them) The message I get is this: Code:
DHCPREQUEST on vr0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 DHCPREQUEST on vr0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 DHCPDISCOVER on vr0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 8 DHCPDISCOVER on vr0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 14 DHCPDISCOVER on vr0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 21 DHCPDISCOVER on vr0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 9 DHCPDISCOVER on vr0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 9 No DHCPOFFERS received. Trying recorded lease 192.168.137.186 No working leases in persistent database - sleeping. Last edited by phoenix; 25th August 2011 at 06:44 PM. |

There are multiple issues you need to resolve.

Likewise, you will need to enable routing as discussed before. The route(8) manpage can be your friend. Lastly, in order to connect multiple hosts to this router/gateway, you will either need to configure all internal hosts with static IP addresses or configure a DHCP server. You can set this up on your router. Study Section 6.4 of the FAQ. The internal hosts will not be able to use your ISP's DHCP server if NAT is configured. If your laptop is running an operating system other than OpenBSD, then this is the wrong forum to be asking. Last edited by ocicat; 24th August 2011 at 10:57 PM. |

Going back to what (little) information was provided in your initial message, your OpenBSD Alix system was unable to get an IP address through DHCP. The first question you need to answer is what DHCP server is it contacting? DHCP servers only communicate on the same subnet unless proxying is enabled at the routers separating the intervening subnets. Last edited by ocicat; 25th August 2011 at 07:21 AM. |
