      Hello everyone

      I have a DHCP server configured on my LAN, pfsense has been showing me the log "bad name in /var/dhcpd/var/db/dhcpd.leases" I have checked my dhcp configuration and everything seems to be ok; Is it possible that this problem drops the network occasionally?

      I have rebooted the server, deleted the file mentioned above and the problem persists; Any possible solution?; Thank you!.

        bad name in /var/dhcpd/var/db/dhcpd.leases

        Same hostname assigned to 2 static IPs?

          Do you by chance have any underscore characters in the host names?
