Hi,

Does anyone know of a publicly available DHCP client that can be run in a
mode useful for testing and evaluating servers?  That is, I need to test a
DHCP server, and would like to run software that can be configured to
request various options, run the client side of DHCP and report the
results.

My preferred system would be SunOS4.1.x but Windows 95 or NT would work too.

Please respond to me and I'll summarize the results to the list.

Thanks in advance,
Milt Roselinsky
