DHCP disconnecting? Then I need to speak with you.

If you have problems with dhclient exiting in your logs then please drop me a email to sullrich@gmail.com

I am gathering data and will need individual contact information.

Thanks in advance!

does this include whenever dhclient goes to 100% cpu usage? Usually when I get 100% cpu usage, dhclient and syslogd are the culprits. I also lose internet connectivity in the process. A reboot fixes stuff for awhile, but it seems like I have to reboot every week or so.

Reboot. It will go away.

I have that problem when I toss in a wireless card…..I think it's when I add carp that my k6-2 gets over-worked and does this....takes about 4-5 days for me.

Note: been running w/out wireless card for about 2 months and no further stability problems.

Check the system logs. Your ISP is most likely feeding you bogus DHCP values, etc.

And what can we do to bogus informatiion of our Internet provider???

sullrich · Jul 6, 2006, 3:19 PM

Ask them to stop? I have no idea what you can do. All I know is that it only seems to hapen with ISP's that send bogus dhcp options.
