Not necessarily accurate. I use dhcpcd over here just fine.
Oh, for Axalon and the rest of the Mandrake boys... one note. The install
for dhcpcd needs to be fixed... it's creating an /etc/dhcpcd directory,
not /etc/dhcpc like dhcpcd requires (go figure, something stupid like an
extra letter...). This is causing some files like the cache file and
whatnot to *not* be created. I didn't notice it causing any problems, but
it's not right. This is with 6.1, which is a step up from 6.0 which
didn't even create the directory if I recall correctly.
