I appreciate your interest in this Buchan. It's really NBFD, as
the eth0 does initialize using =dhcp, it's just takes 30 to 40
seconds. I probly should'a mentioned before that
dhcp-client-3.0-2pl2.5mdk dhcp-common-3.0-2pl2.5mdk are installed,
dhcpd isn't. It's been that way all thru 9.1 development. If there
is somthin weird, it's probly sbcglobal (sbc - Southwestern Bell ;)
