Maybe it's not good to ask the lkml, but since there are so many experts here, it makes sense to me. I have a dhcp-server running with 2.6.10 (had it running with 2.6.{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9} as well) and the dhcpd logs all the time: Dec 26 07:22:11 brain dhcpd: ip length 44 disagrees with bytes received 46. Dec 26 07:22:11 brain dhcpd: accepting packet with data after udp payload. Dec 26 07:22:11 brain dhcpd: ip length 44 disagrees with bytes received 46.

Dec 26 07:23:11 brain dhcpd: accepting packet with data after udp payload. Now my question; Is this normal? Where does it come from? Why does it happen? For me this seems strange... FYI. I have the server running with the above mentioned kernel and Fedora Core Development Tree (dhcpd 3.0.1). Any help is welcome! Best regards, Oliver
