Hi,
I ask some help please.

My linux client is configured to take address from ISC DHCP Server
V3.0.1rc9.

It's works very well until dhcp server is up, but when dhcp server goes
down, my client
at boot cannot take its ip address.

I expected that normal issue for my client coul'd be not change address
until expiration time is done.

This not happens, and the client lost connection without ip address
assigned.

Someone have some idea?

Thank you

Dundo
