Apologies for the somewhat off-topic post, but judging by DejaNews, this
list seems to be the most concentrated source of JavaStation information
on the net...

So I'm still fiddling with this "Krups" model JavaStation, with OBP
3.11.7.  I've set up a Solaris X86 box as a DHCP server (ISC DHCP 2.0),
with the following config file:


option domain-name-servers 10.0.0.1; 
option routers 10.0.0.1;  
 
host pacifica {  
        allow booting; 
        filename "netbsd"; 
        hardware ethernet 8:0:20:90:3f:fb;  
        fixed-address 10.0.0.7; 
} 
 

DHCP seems to think it's doing its job:

DHCPDISCOVER from 08:00:20:90:3f:fb via dnet0
DHCPOFFER on 10.0.0.7 to 08:00:20:90:3f:fb via dnet0
DHCPDISCOVER from 08:00:20:90:3f:fb via dnet0
DHCPOFFER on 10.0.0.7 to 08:00:20:90:3f:fb via dnet0
DHCPDISCOVER from 08:00:20:90:3f:fb via dnet0
DHCPOFFER on 10.0.0.7 to 08:00:20:90:3f:fb via dnet0


The JavaStation keeps asking for an address; DHCP keeps saying
10.0.0.7.  How come the JavaStation won't accept the address?  I was
expecting to see the JavaStation grab the address, then issue a TFTP
call to the DHCP server.

Snooping the connection just shows repeated broadcasts to port 67 from
the JavaStation.

Many thanks!
