> OK, I see absolutely nothing whatsoever there that would make dhcpd behave differently when doing updates for the different interfaces. If it does behave differently based on the arrival interface of the packet, then that's an artifact of it's internal operation and liable to change at any time without warning. What output do you get from "diff /etc/dhcpd.subnet-eth0 /etc/dhcpd.subnet-eth1" ? If that's a true copy of your config then there will be no output and the two include files are identical.
sorry i make a mistake, here is the good dhcpd.subnet-eth1 config file

# /etc/dhcpd.subnet-eth1

subnet 10.88.94.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
option routers 10.88.94.1;
range 10.88.94.151 10.88.94.254;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option domain-name-servers 10.88.94.50;
zone 94.88.10.in-addr.arpa. { primary 10.88.94.50; key vl005000; }
zone lausanne.edu-vd. { primary 10.88.94.50; key vl005000; }
zone aigle.alpes.edu-vd. { primary 10.88.94.50; key vl005000; }
zone bex.alpes.edu-vd. { primary 10.88.94.50; key vl005000; }
}

Eg, in eth0 you use 10.28.25.50 as the primary, in eth1 you use 10.28.25.51, and so on. But you still have the problem that dhcpd is not designed to select a different (but IP-wise identical) subnet declaration based on the interface on which the packet arrives.

okay, have you the same conclusion with the good configuration file included in this mail ?

thank you
