|
|
I have installed gentoo box as a gateway for my second PC ( which runs gentoo too). Just after startup everything looks fine but after a while dhcpcd looses a connection. Restart of dhcpd(on server) and/or dhcpcd(on client) doesn't help. However if I reboot both machines it works again ... for a while (untill next lease?).
Code: |
default-lease-time 600;
max-lease-time 7200;
ddns-update-style ad-hoc;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option broadcast-address 192.168.0.255;
option routers 192.168.0.1;
option domain-name-servers 62.2.17.60, 62.2.24.162, 62.2.17.61, 62.2.24.158;
option domain-name "myisp.com";
subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.0.2 192.168.0.255;
}

what is happening is that the dhpc daemon runs out of leases (its using .254 allready !) the question is why ... you set the default lease time *very* low, is that intentional ?
I usually use:
ddns-update-style ad-hoc;
default-lease-time 21600;
max-lease-time 21600;
shared-network WORKSTATIONS {
subnet 10.1.4.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
authoritative;
range 10.1.4.140 10.1.4.200;
}
} |

It uses .254 even at the first lease time and the rest is still free. Short lease time ... I just left default. More important is that I found some trick to get it working.
If I set gateway in /etc/conf.d/net on the client side then it works great, but .. I cannot use it at work then. |

I'm not so sure about these :
1. Default lease time is too short ? 3600 may be good enough.
2. Why do you put 192.168.0.255 in the range ? Should be from 192.168.0.2 through 192.168.0.254.
Good luck |
