What does this mean ???

divyashree · 07-28-2009, 10:13 AM

I setup a samba server,when I tried to access from windows to my sambaserver I checked the /var/log/messages of the server saying

Code:

DHCPINFORM from 172.24.0.253 via eth0: not authoritative for subnet 172.24.0.0

and reject .

What does this mean and what should I do to fix this type of logs.....

Please use better thread titles in future. With 300 posts to your name, I'm sure you can appreciate that "What does this mean ???" is not useful in any way.

and there are many useful google hits if you look http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q...ive+for+subnet
