[En-Nut-Discussion] DHCP Failure on Renew

[Michael Jones]

Hello,

We have been having problems with DHCP enabled client dying after half lease
time for quite a while (Also reported by Ulrich a few days ago).

My observations are that the DHCP thread gets stuck in the DHCPST_REBINDING
state and never sends the request nor yields to any other thread.

I'm still trying to understand to whole state machine, but perhaps somebody
could look at the "else" in dhcpc.c (trunk), line 1714 - IMHO that "else"
should not be there. Also, I'm not quite sure how the DHCPST_REBINDING state
should conclude once it has been entered.

cu,
Michael
