Hi

Got my NIC set-up for DHCP in /etc/rc.conf.  When the machine fires up I get
the following error when trying to obtain a DHCP lease.

kursk# dhclient ep0
ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCDIFADDR): Can't assign requested address

I have no firewall or anything in place.  /etc/hosts has ALL:ALL:ALLOW in it
at the top.

Gordon
PS Robert - I was put in contact with you from Richard Tobin.
