[Openswan Users] dhcp over ipsec

[Radu Brumariu]

    I have tried moving the dhcpd server to another machine, but it 
didn't work. I had the same thing : no DHCPREQUESTs following the 
DHCPOFFERs.
    SSH Sent 1.4.1 is not available anymore , or at least I cannot find 
it anywhere.
    One thing to add : I am using the dhcrelay from ISC, not the 
dhcprelay from strongsec.com, since the latter didn't even wanted to 
start claiming that the interface was already in use ( which it was by 
the dhcpd server )...
   
    Thanks for the comments.
