So how are you doing DHCP then?

NM requests information from dhcdbd, and dhcdbd gets its information
from the dhclient script.  But the dhclient script only gets notified to
push the information back to dhcdbd if you have a -x aware dhclient.

So, you will need:

1) dhcdbd
2) dhclient with -x
3) a dhclient script with correct magic to push options back to dhcdbd

Otherwise, it's not going to work.
