You're easily confused. The default dhcp client on Debian is dhclient which is provided by isc-dhcp-client, previously dhcp3-client. I doubt that dhcp3-client has ever provided dhcpcd, even in 2008. So that debianist notes page is incorrect. I'd trust Bob if I were you; especially since it's MORONIC to define an interface in "/etc/network/interfaces" and then advise a user to acquire an ip address with a dhcp client rather than with ifup or service. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
