Hello there, hope this mail finds you well. I've just setup OpenBSD on my desktop for 2nd time, but it's on a different machine. However, one thing I didn't see on my first install was the ability to have nothing happen during `pkg_add chromium`. I later found out this was because I didn't have the networking setup properly, or so I thought. I decided to check /etc/hostname.re0 and what I saw in my config was pretty much what you would expect:
``` inet autoconf inet6 autoconf ``` I checked hostname.if(5) and the FAQ and found out that made my spine shiver: I did it correctly the first time. I tried the manual approach (being `ifconfig re0 inet autoconf`) after and surprisingly, nothing happened. Exquisite. I asked about it on the unofficial Libera.Chat room and I was asked about the following commands: | Command | Output | | -------------------- | ------------------------------------ | | dhcpleasectl -l re0 | re0: [Init] | | dhcpleasectl re0 | re0: [Init] | | cat /var/logs/daemon | dhcpleased: Removing [address] [...] | There was pretty much nothing useful I could gather and wanted to ask here in case anyone else had an idea. I'll admit, I am quite stumped, but I am happy to wait as long as needed for a response. Hope this email wasn't too annoying. :) Cheers, -- Artur Manuel (amadaluzia)
