Re: [Xen-users] How to determine DHCP address assigned to client?

 	Is there any way to interrogate a client to determine what 
DHCP address was assigned to it?  The client, a Fedora 9 domU 
running on a CentOS 5.2 dom0, has no serial console, so there's no 
way to connect to it till I can find its address.
 
Use a tool like Wireshark and watch the packets ? If you know the MAC 
address of the client*, then you can simply look for packets with 
that MAC address. 
My preference is to fix this in the guest config file - that way the 
client doesn't keep thinking it's got a new interface each time it 
boots.
