Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
I thought this was talking about the service script, but this is actually
a bootscript called dhcp in init.d. Looking at the script, it's seriously
broken. The preferred way is to use the network service script which
doesn't offer a reload option.
So, the options are to repair the init.d bootscript or to remove it. The
init script is sort of broken by design since it offers no way to
configure it per interface. Plus, the "reload" option (sending SIGHUP to
dhcpcd) actually kills the daemon by design.
I say just remove the bootscript. Anyone have a problem with that?
