Folks,

 

I tried to enable DHCP client on OpenVMS 9.2 x86 and rebooted system on
VirtualBox.  It successfully obtained IP address from my router but.

I tried to access the Internet but got I/O error on network device -
permanent failure. 

 

$ sh net

 

Product: DECNET Node: TSVMSP Address(es): 31.154

Product: TCP/IP Node: <TCP/IP host/node name not yet available> Address

(es): 0.0.0.0

$ ftp ftp.process.com

%TCPIP-E-FTP_NETERR, I/O error on network device

-TCPIP-E-EAI_FAIL, permanent failure

$

 

When I disabled DHCP client and assigned static IP address, all problems
disappeared.

 

$ sh net

 

Product: DECNET Node: TSVMSP Address(es): 31.154

Product: TCP/IP Node: tsvmsp.local Address(es): 192.168.1.166

$ ftp ftp.process.com

220 triton.process.com MultiNet FTP Server Process V5.6(17) at Sat
22-Apr-2023 5

:59PM-EDT

Connected to ftp.process.com.

Name (ftp.process.com:system): Exit

221 QUIT command received. Goodbye.

$

 

Does anyone have any solution for fixing DHCP client problems?

 

I tried different virtual machine software like QEMU/KVM on Ubuntu but I
still have same problem. 

 

Tim
