nothing at *all* changed

might have a fix. Noticed some odd things with the logs and files for dhclient.

under /var/db there is a file dhclient.leases.(interface phy name). mine had multiple entries for the same interface, all with the same data. The only difference was the timings for renewing. Also, I noticed the IP itself wasn't actually changing with any of these renewals.


lease {
  interface "igc0";
  fixed-address (IP#1);
(ip info)
  renew 0 2024/9/15 00:47:05;
  rebind 0 2024/9/15 00:58:20;
  expire 0 2024/9/15 01:02:05;
}
lease {
  interface "igc0";
  fixed-address (IP#1);
(ip info)
  renew 0 2024/9/15 01:05:33;
  rebind 0 2024/9/15 01:16:48;
  expire 0 2024/9/15 01:20:33;
}
lease {
  interface "igc0";
  fixed-address (IP#1);
(ip info)
  renew 0 2024/9/15 01:20:33;
  rebind 0 2024/9/15 01:31:48;
  expire 0 2024/9/15 01:35:33;

i deleted this file and everything SEEMs to be working as intended. File updated with a single entry, and the WAN pulled a new ip. It seems like the IP wasnt actually releasing and the server kept trying to force it with fast timings.

I'll report back if this is actually a fix or just a more complicated interface reset.

anyone figure anything out yet? having this exact issue.
