Howdy all.  Having problems obtaining a DHCP lease on xl0.  Using
ifconfig_xl0="DHCP" the system never shows any errors and boots
normally (but gets no addy).  Using the dhclient by itself yields:

weedwhacker# dhclient

I do have pseudo-device	bpfilter	2	#Berkeley
packet filter  installed in the kernel.
Ideas?  Comments?  Suggestions?  DHCP worked when I installed FBSD from
the internet.  I dont know what I've done to this poor computer to
cause it to quit working.  Further more I am at a loss as where to
begin trouble shooting it.

thanks for your help.
