[PATCH] The DHCPREQUEST message should contain the same 'xid' as the DHCPOFFER message

[Lambrecht Jürgen]

Hi,

I found a bug and fixed it, so I don't know if I need to use bugzilla 
for that?
In attach the patch.

file: net/common/current/src/dhcp_prot.c

According to RFC 2131 (http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2131.html): "The 
DHCPREQUEST message contains the same 'xid' as the DHCPOFFER message."
So in a DHCP DORA cycle (Discover-Offer-Request-Acknowledge) the same 
transaction ID should be used ('xid' in C code).
We never had problems with that, but now we have a strict customer..

Kind regards,
Jürgen
