Hello,

I'm using this (the jessie default) DHCP client on a fresh
install. This machine spends most of its time in suspend (S3) and is
only woken up when needed. The DHCP server gives out 24 h leases.

Last regular boot (i.e. not just resume from S3) was on the evening of
the 19th -- and that's the last the journal has heard from dhclient:

Jän 19 20:27:20 mrmackey dhclient[503]: bound to 192.168.0.25 -- renewal in 40765 seconds.
Jän 19 20:27:20 mrmackey ifup[478]: bound to 192.168.0.25 -- renewal in 40765 seconds.

Since then, there've been a few suspend/resume cycles but no
reboots. Obviously, the lease has long since lapsed, without any
discernable attempt to renew it. (Yes, dhclient is still running.)

This is the first time this install has gone this long without a
reboot, so I'm afraid it might not be a one-time glitch. Is it
possible that it doesn't like the way systemd handles suspend/resume?

Regards,
Christian Pernegger

P.S.: The leases file shows two leases for some reason.

Hi,

I'd just wanted to add that
- version 4.3.3-8 (currently in testing) still has this problem
- dhcpcd5 works fine

So I'm switching my affected machines to dhcpcd5 for now, but in the
long rung I'd like to stay with the default dhcp client, so if there's
anything to test I can switch back anytime.

Regards,
Christian

My dhclient.enp0s25.leases contains two leases and every few days it
won't renew the lease when waking up from suspend-to-ram. It works fine
on quite a few other days though.

I think this occured the first time after updating the system to
stretch (amd64).

Cheers,
   Tim
