Subject:   Bootpd bug in 2.0-951222-SNAP

Using that late December Snapshot (I'm not sure if I have the date 
right), I've noticed some nasty behaviour with bootpd.  It seems to work 
fine initially, but within a few hours of it's startup it begins to flake 
out.  It stops responding to some addresses, and SEEMS to interfere with 
bootp service running on a different (non-FreeBSD) server.

I was able to achieve a band-aid solution by having cron kill and restart 
bootpd every hour, but this is less than optimum.

If this has been fixed, the please let me know.  I would think that we'd 
want to get this fixed before the 2.1 release.  Bootp is (in my opinion) 
a pretty fundamental service for a unix box.

Please reply via email, as I do not subscribe to this list.

Thanks,
