W2K acting as a DHCP client to a Linux DHCP server is generating unnecessary DHCP traffic which causes failures (e.g. no login, ipadd). Has anybody come across this type of problem and if so, explain how the problem was resolved? I'm a newbie to Linux and I'm trying to learn more. Hopefully someone can help
Thanx

Perhaps you could adjust the 2k server to broadcast a little less frequently?
