If all your machines have leases, they'll continue to unicast extension requests to the server that initially granted the lease. (And get them, if things are working right.) Thus no broadcasts - at least until a lease expires (or gets old enough.) Did you look into this aspect ? You may need to force some clients to drop their lease so they will start again by broadcasting Discover packets. Simon -- ISC funds the development of this software with paid support subscriptions.
