I've tried to get DCHPCD running. (BLFS 6.1) I found that net-tools wouldn't compile - a dangling 'default:' in a switch statement. Fixed these manually.
After installing DHCPCD, I modified /etc/sysconfig/network-devices/ifconfig.eth0/ipv4 as follows: ONBOOT=yes SERVICE=dhcpcd #IP= #GATEWAY= #PREFIX= #BROADCAST= /etc/ntp.conf, resolv.conf and yp.conf appear to be properly changed by dhcpcd at boot time. /etc/sysconfig/network-devices/ifconfig.eth0/dhcpcd is exactly like the book. DHCPCD runs, but a bunch of strange things are happening: 1) I get a bunch of error messages regarding iptables: FATAL: Module ip_tables not found. Iptables v1.3.3: can't initialize iptables table `filter': iptables who? (do you need to insmod?) Perhaps insmod or your kernel needs to be upgraded. - Where in the kernel is the iptables option? 2) it tries to start DHCPCD twice. The first succeeds, and the second time pops out with an error stop: FAILURE: You should not be reading this error message. It means that an unforeseen error took place in /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S20network, which exited with a return value of 2. If you're able to track this error down to a bug in one of the files provided by the LFS book, please be so kind to inform us at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Press Enter to continue... - This seemed to start when I enabled DHCP support in the kernel. 3) When shutting down, it tries to kill off DHCPCD twice, 1st time OK, 2nd time FAIL. Why is it starting and stopping dhcpcd twice?
