When I start Internet Sharing /etc/bootpd.plist is not created and the other device is not assigned an IP address.
Just like the tite says. I am investigating why my Macbook Pro (3,1) running Mountain Lion will not assign an IP address to a computer connected via Ethernet when Internet Sharing is turned on (laptop receiving WiFi connection, supposed to be sharing connection over ethernet). I tested using a relatives macbook and it worked just fine. It turns out my laptop is not creating the file: /etc/bootpd.plist when Internet Sharing is turned on.
I have a console log here from when I start internet sharing:

Any help is appreciated!
