I was looking at /var/db/dhcp.leases on a dhcp client machine.  The
renew time does not match the dhcp-lease-time.

<snip>

lease {
  interface "rl0";
  fixed-address 192.168.1.20;
  option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
  option time-offset -8;
  option routers 192.168.1.254;
  option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.11,192.168.1.12;
  option host-name "mybox";
  option domain-name "somenetwork.com";
  option broadcast-address 192.168.1.255;
  option dhcp-lease-time 14400;
  option dhcp-message-type 5;
  option dhcp-server-identifier 192.168.1.1;
  renew 5 2002/1/4 22:44:34;
  rebind 6 2002/1/5 00:14:34;
  expire 6 2002/1/5 00:44:34;
}

<snip>

Logically, I would think the renew time and expire time would be 4
hours different.  Any words of wisdom?

Thanks,
Will
