New Revision: 190031
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/190031
Log:
Revert r188010. When dhclient is backgrounded, services such as ntpdate,
sendmail / postfix etc. may fail to start because DNS is unavailable and /
or the server is unreachable. In the worst case, the machine may become
unusable.
Debugging this issue was far more difficult than it should have been, due
to earlier changes to the rc framework to hide almost all useful information
about the boot process.
