How do you get DHCP to work on a HP workstation running 11.11? I used both SAM and edited the /etc/rc.config.d/netconf file. I got it to kinda work but the client won't renew it's lease.

AJ Fisher,

I got it working, but turned it off.

CDE hangs everytime a new ip-address was assigned, because CDE checks the ip-address versus the hostname and does not get a match (/etc/hosts still has the old lease as a matching pair).

Had to reboot into single user mode after each new lease.

Kind regards,

Jan Gerrit
