Hi All,

I'm just getting started with ISC DHCP and NetReg, and I've almost got
everything working (*phew*).

I've got NetReg set up to authenticate to our LDAP server (Netscape Dir
Server 4.15). The authentication seems to be working properly-- if I
put in a bogus password I get an error message back.

However, if I enter my correct password, it appears to register my MAC
address and then tells me to restart my machine. After a restart, I
still have the same temporary lease I had before. Upon researching the
dhcpd.conf and dhcpd.conf.new file I noticed that there is no host
entry with my LDAP uid and MAC address as expected. The files have not
been modified at all by the script.

Does anyone have any advice on where I can look for the cause of this
problem?

thanks, and Happy New Year!
Jennifer
