FW: udhcpd listening on all interfaces

[Blanchette, Sylvie]

Denys,

The notify_file directive is commented out in my udhcpd.conf.

What "session"? DHCP daemon doesnt run any "sessions", it is meant to
run forever.

No. You are here if auto_time != 0. You need to write lease, and go back
to waiting on select for the next packet or next timeout - exactly what
the next code does:

I think the bug may be that your notify_file directive in udhcpd.conf
contains an invalid path. Please post your  udhcpd.conf.
