If I manually assign an IP in the subnet 10.0.1.0/24, everything works fine but if I set the client Mac to DHCP, they get 169.254...


Running a packet capture on the server - do you see the DHCP request from the client Ethernet...

Sorry, I don't know how to do that.


Are the Macs still behind the AirPort, and if so has it been changed to a Bridge configuration?

No, the ABS is just another DHCP client on the network now.

My setup is:

WAN--en0  Xserve  en1(10.0.1.1) -- 24-port switch --- LAN


Also it sometimes happens that the DHCP server tries to start too early on boot when there are no interfaces active - check the DHCP logs for similar errors?

I have stopped and restarted the DHCP server several times after all interfaces are active.


Each Mac on the LAN shows that it is connected at 1000Base T speed and each works fine with a manually-assigned address so I have to suspect that I have configured something incorrectly.

I've told the DHCP service to listen on en1, I've specified the range of IPs to distribute, specified the IP address of en1 (10.0.1.1) as the 'router' setting and used 255.255.255.0 as the netmask.

What am I missing?
