Below is the DHCP debug output ==================== DHCPDISCOVER from 00:07:e9:2f:45:55 via rl0 DHCPOFFER on 10.0.0.24 to 00:07:e9:2f:45:55 via rl0 DHCPREQUEST for 10.0.0.24 (10.0.0.10) from 00:07:e9:2f:45:55 via rl0 DHCPACK on 10.0.0.24 to 00:07:e9:2f:45:55 via rl0 DHCPDISCOVER from 00:07:e9:2f:45:55 via rl0 DHCPOFFER on 10.0.0.24 to 00:07:e9:2f:45:55 via rl0 DHCPREQUEST for 192.168.102.110 (192.168.102.1) from 00:07:e9:2f:45:55 via rl0: ignored (not authoritative). The first 4 lines are the communication between the rom pxe and the dhcp server. The last 3 lines are the communication between the downloaded pxeboot and the dhcp server. The downloaded pxeboot does not seem to retain the ip address offered by DHCP. Any don't know where it got 192.168.102.110 (192.168.102.1) from. Has anyone faced this problem before.
