} <---------------------------both from my provider
cdjsys at mateo:/var/lib/dhcp3$ cat dhclient.leases
cdjsys at mateo:/var/lib/dhcp3$
The only one that should have a leases on the client side is eth0 (connects to
my ISP). The leases file on the server side is empty....
Where should I be looking??
Thanks,
Jay
