The Ghost of Dhclient

[Graaf, Rob]

Hi Jason,

have you specified your network interface in /etc/dhclient.conf, otherwise
it may not work.

--- snip /etc/dhclient.conf ------
interface "wi0" {
send dhcp-client-identifier "mycomputername";
media "nwid 'NETW1' -nwkey"; # force NETW1 network
# media "nwid '' -nwkey"; # allow open network
request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, routers, domain-name-servers,
domain-name, time-servers;
}
-----------------------------------

Greetings Rob

Hi Everyone,

Sometimes I can get wireless to work by running dhclient ndis0, and then
I find 
out that it's not running:

   # /etc/rc.d/dhclient status
   dhclient is not running.

Like right now. But I can still send email and search the web. How is
this 
happening? I always run
   # ifconfig ndis0 up
before I run dhclient.
