multiple DHCP interfaces

Howdy list,

Has anyone had success running DHCP on multiple
interfaces simultaneously?

I have a wireless interface (wi0) and a 10/100
wired interface (fxp0).

I can get DHCP running for one interface or the
other, but not for both at the same time.

Also, is there a way to configure freebsd to
do DHCP negotiations in the background on system
boot?

If my wired 10/100 isn't plugged in, I really
don't want to wait while the DHCP requests time
out. Sure, I can just press CTRL+c and have done
with it, but that requires me to actually do some
manual labor. I'd rather automate the process. :)

Same goes for the wireless link when there isn't
an AP around...


Thanks!
