HI All
This maybe a bug but before I go down that track I thought I would get some advice having never submitted a bug before
We were using a Cisco router in our office that was set to be the DHCP server. We have changed this to the SME server
SME 8.0 - fully up to date
The only additional contrib is the user vacations
We configured the DHCP range in the admin panel to 192.168.2.100 to 192.168.2.199. We have check this in the panel
The GUI server manager panel shows the same range in the "review configuration"
However no one could get a lease from the DHCP server requiring us to manually set DHCP address.
Looking at the DHCP config shows that the address range is in fact 192.168.2.100 to 192.168.2.99
which is a negative range of numbers. Looking through the dhcpd log there are hundreds of entries
that say no free lease except for two leases 192.168.2.100 and 192.168.2.99. I have pasted a small
section of the log below the dhcp.conf
Before I go and change the range in the server admin panel to see if it re-writes the dhcp.conf file
I thought I better see if anyone wants any further information or if it should be entered as a bug.
[root@sammy dhcp]# cat /etc/dhcpd.conf
