DHCP won't stay running

[j.scott.gwin@…]

on Ubuntu Server 10.04 w/all current updates, ebox ver. 1.5.

DHCP won't stay running longer than 1-2 minutes. I can restart in the dashboard and watch it stop very quickly. Nothing shows up in the ebox logging system. But when I tail syslog:

Aug 13 04:03:14 ebox dhcpd: Not configured to listen on any interfaces!

This isn't something I've ever had to do before and if it needs to be done, why isn't there a place to do it within the web interface?

I apologize for the mess I posted at first.

I'm having the same problem with the same output but can't figure out why? have you had any joy with this yet?

This also happens after a fresh install, 2 x NIC's, one external, one internal.

[jsoriano@…]

Hi,

To enable DHCP you need at least an internal network interface configured statically. Could you check those settings?

You should also check that there is no other DHCP server in your network.

If the problem persists, please, reopen the ticket describing your network interfaces settings.

Thanks!

Same thing here DHCP broken out of the box. Set eth1 static

Interface IP address: 192.168.0.1 Subnet: 192.168.0.0/24 Available range: 192.168.0.1 - 192.168.0.254

/var/log/daemon.log.

If this is not what Oct 22 18:27:22 fw1 dhcpd: you want, please write a subnet declaration Oct 22 18:27:22 fw1 dhcpd: in your dhcpd.conf file for the network segment Oct 22 18:27:22 fw1 dhcpd: to which interface eth1 is attached.

Seems pushing save, saves every module but the intened. Thats neat feature; editing dhcp, or any setting zentyal has to save squid settings? Maybe it should save my cron jobs again?

I came from ClearOS thinking the grass was greener on the other side because CentOS and it's repositories are usually a complete mess. Although a firewall that can't support dhcpd out of the box is pretty useless. Then to find out the backend is perl! Eeek! I'll have to just old school CLI this or buy a real hardware appliance. Also, keep with the trend and leave as closed/trivial.

I have the same problem . syslog Nov 15 17:37:30 ubuntu dhcpd: No subnet declaration for eth2 (192.168.1.1). Nov 15 17:37:30 ubuntu dhcpd: Ignoring requests on eth2.

[galaxys2875@…]

HI I fixed the problem by adding a range

dhcp won't start without adding at least 1 range

[me@…]

Zentyal does such a great job generally in guiding a user through setting up a network that I think the absence of a clear indication in the UI that adding a range is required should be considered a bug. Zentyal does exactly this kind of hand holding in a number of places and I'm not exactly inexperienced with configuring a DHCP server and this one confounded me for far too long.

[jacalvo@…]

This should be fixed already in Zentyal 3.0 RC2, please reopen if you still can provide detailed steps on how to reproduce it. Thanks!
