Hey,
considering this sequence:
dhclient fxp0
now we have ip address & everything is fine. dhclient keeps running
dhclient fxp0
returns error 1. in syslog, it complains about the address already
beeing taken, because of the running dhlient. However, it will set the
ip address of fxp0 to 0.0.0.0. Now I'm left with an unusable system.
killall dhclient
dhclient fxp0
now it works again.
cheers
simon
