| Hi 
| 
| There is patch to teach rcNG do not try dhcp on not-connected ethernet.
| 
| simply put
| ifconfig_fxp0="dhcp-if-carrier"
| into rc.conf
| 
| It will be interested to somebody
| 
| Theoretically there are another solution for problem - add new key to
| dhclient - check interface media before broadcasting.

I think that most network related stuff should do this as an
added function by user choice.  For example, no NFS if interface does
not exist.
