Sounds wrong to me. Sounds kinda pointless to me. If you wanted the requests to go out on the same network they came in on, you wouldn't need a relay.... > how do I fix it? is it my routing table? Could be - what does your routing table say ? My copy of "man dhcrelay" says: dhcrelay [ -p port ] [ -d ] [ -q ] [ -i if0 [ ... -i ifN ] ] server0 [ ...serverN ] The DHCP Relay Agent listens for DHCP requests on all interfaces attached to a host, unless one or more interfaces are specified on the command line with the -i flag. When a query is received, dhcrelay forwards it to the list of DHCP servers specified on the command line. When a reply is received, it is broadcast or unicast on the network from whence the original request came. Therefore I think your command should be: dhcrelay -i eth2 192.168.1.70 If this sends packets to 192.168.1.70 out of eth2, try pinging 192.168.1.70 and see where the packets come out of then.
