a *itch of a time getting dhcp data on startup from MediaOne, and I came
accross something I *know* someone had a conversation with earlier..

  My solution was to replace "pump" with "dhcpcd".  Where pump was taking
several tries to gather data, dhcpcd takes a few seconds.  It still failed
at times, but not *NEARLY* as often as pump did..  When I kicked in the -t
option to like 60 seconds, it *NEVER* failed..

  What's up with pump?  Is there some secret to it, or does it just not that
great at times with certain dhcp servers?  Does RH 6.2 update this?
