>Description:
	

Running FreeBSD 8.1 as vmware guest with network address assigned by DHCP on
em0 device.  On suspend, the suspend-vm-default script runs /etc/rc.d/netif
stop to shutdown the inteface. this causes dhclient to exit.  on resume the
script runs /etc/rc.d/netif start, which brings up the interface, but does not
start dhclient so no IP address is assigned and the machine is dark to the
network.

>How-To-Repeat:
	
assign the interface using DHCP, suspend and resume the VM.

>Fix:

	


The original VMware resume script just runs /etc/netstart.  This following
patch also does the trick to start dhclient on resume.
