OK, now I tried switching to udhcpc for kicks, and I get
"Operation
failed." when it tries to run pump.
This is crazy. Getting a DHCP
client running on a linux box shouldn't
be this hard.
I had this
same problem with a TS-7260 board months ago, and it never
got
resolved.
I've tried running against DHCP servers on OpenWRT, default
Linksys
boxes, and our regular Slug based system that dozens of
machines
connect happily to every day.
Mean time between email
responses from Technologic seems to be 2 days.
I was honestly about to
roll out a prototype product based on the Wifi
box to at least 100
customers. I'm at the point of going back to the
drawing board on this
though.
Is ANYONE running DHCP on a TS box while running full
Debian?
