Thanks, I've created host object with "known" set to 1 as you suggested,
that doesn't help.
Also we have some host blocked on our network by mac address through OMAPI,
like this in dhcpd.leases:
host blockedmacaddr-00-12-f0-c2-35-15 {
dynamic;
hardware ethernet 00:12:f0:c2:35:15;
supersede server.allow-booting = 00;
}
which blocked the mac address as desired:
Apr 6 14:47:19 omni dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 00:12:f0:c2:35:15 via
10.231.191.254: booting disallowed
Seems to me sometimes the server can't tell the difference between blocked
hosts and innocent hosts and blocks the wrong one.
