Hi,

Does anyone know of a way to determine IP address of DHCP server on a
subnet without running a dhcp client and without running a portscan?

Basically, I'd like to broadcast a DHCPDISCOVER packet like a real DHCP
client does and see who replies.  I tried netcat but (unsurprisingly
didn't have success.
