dhcp doesn't work

[Alex Loes]

Binary package hint: dhcp-client

Hello

In Kubuntu 7.10, getting an IP from DHCP doesn't work. I had to restart it in console with sudo dhclient eth0.

I'm not sure if this is the appropriate place to report a problem from Gutsy. So, where does I else report the problem?

Thx

What I mean is the automatic dhcp while booting.

For me DHCP often works after a boot but fails when
the DHCP transaction should be done.
