Description:
After upgrading dhcpcd 4 -> 5 getting IP for the WiFi Adapter fails with an error: dhcpcd: wlan0: ignoring DHCP message; no Server ID dhcpcd: wlan0: ignoring DHCP message; no Server ID dhcpcd: wlan0: ignoring DHCP message; no Server ID dhcpcd: timed out :: MyNet up - DHCP IP lease attempt failed [FAIL] Do not know if it is netcfg, dhcpcd or driver error, 'cause on other machine (using wicd, rt2500 adapter and dhcpcd 5) is everything ok. Downgrading dhcpcd 5 -> 4 solved the problem. Additional info: * package version(s) netcfg 2.1.3-3 dhcpcd 5.0.2-1 * hardware rt73 based WiFi USB-Stick Steps to reproduce: Try to init netcfg WiFi profile using dhcpcd |
This task depends upon
Your DHCP server is not following the RFC and not behaving as it should. In v5, dhcpcd became a lot stricter, hence it complains now. dhcpcd v5.0.4 is in [testing] and it contains an option to allow these dhcp servers.
