When doing dhcping there is a new record in the log, but still no answer:
19:35:54 DHCPREQUEST for 10.10.10.3 from 00:00:00:00:00:00 via ETH00: unknown lease 10.10.10.3.
Tried deleting dhcpd.pid and rebooting, then checking if pgrep gave the same PID as contained in the new dhcpd.pid – they are same, so no discrepancy between running process and its pid file.
I am really running out of options other than to re-format the box and rebuild from scratch.
Any ideas??? Fulvio to the rescue!!!
