Re: [TCLUG:3992] DHCP probs (not ethernet)

[Ben Luey <lueyb@carleton.edu>]

What dhcpcd version are you using? I only got dhcpcd-1.3 to work under 2.2
and dhcpcd-0.70 only under 2.0.35. I got the same errors you got before I
upgraded dhcpcd to go along with my kernel.

Good Luck,

Ben

When the neurosurgeon has shaved your head and they have made the pencil
mark on your skull where they are going to have the incision and he
approaches with electric saw, ask him one question: Are you a careerist?
