When I boot my RH73, it runs dhcpcd that tries to find a dhcp server around and
aquire an IP address for me.
However, if I fail to connect to the LAN on time, dhcpcd fails and does not try
again ever (unless I run it manually).
I read from the dhcpcd manual that:
dhcpcd will not fork into background until
it gets a valid IP address in which case dhcpcd
will return 0 to the parent process. In a case
dhcpcd times out before receiving a valid IP
address from DHCP server dhcpcd will return exit
code 1 to the parent process.
why is that? Isn't it more logical to hover around untill a server IS found? any
idea how to cirumvent this?
Thanks,
Dan.
