Hi,
I have a strange situation and that really bothers me a lot.
I got a machine with RedHat Enterprise Linux 5 installed. I set the ifcfg-eth0 as following:
Code:
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Ethernet
when the machine rebooted, eth0 has the ip address 192.168.24.234. But if executing 'dhclient', eth0 will get the ip address 10.200.34.208, which is my expected ip address.
I'm not quite familiar with networking things. I don't know what's going on there. Why should I need to execute 'dhclient' to obtain the expected ip address? Is there any way to obtain the ip address 10.200.34.208 right after host boot?
Thanks in advance!!!
