The dhcpd is used as a dhcp server. If you have a cable modem then you are
a dhcp client. If you have other computers in your net which you want to
assign ip addresses to, *then* you would use dhcpd.
The pump rpm includes netconfig, so you can set up your dhcp connection to
be at boottime. The options are all there.
