Has anyone had good luck serving dhcp addresses to Vista clients that work reliably? I have a test system and I can't seem to find out how to properly get dhcpd to always respond with broadcast instead of unicast since Vista won't honor unicast dhcp packets. -- MailScanner is like deodorant...

Stock dhcpd server in CentOS 5, and Vista Home. Worked without any special config. Are you sure that is the problem? -- Paul
