- Server 10.4.8
- Scope has 300 available entries
- network has about 100 devices
- lease time: 4 hours
The DHCP server has no available leases ...
- what could be happening here?
Machines you don't know about could be asking for leases. Machines
you do know about could be trying to use the addresses they're
handed, find they're already in use by other computers, and ask for
new ones. The server could be configured incorrectly.
Take a look in the following
/var/db/dhcpd_leases
/var/db/bsdpd_clients
See if you can work out what's happening.
- what is the best way to clear - overnight - the assigned leases?
You can do this but it's complicated and if you're not happy playing
with unix command lines you'd probably better leave it alone. Better
to solve the problem.
