Thanks to Sebastian and Brooks for their quick replies. I took the easy way out and installed the ISC client which works just fine. The problem is my DHCP server is a DSL modem. I don't see any way to set the domain field. In addition, this interface is really not on a network but a connection between two networks (its PPPoE), it make sense that my ISP has configured the modem this way. The interface is one that will be addressed only by address, it really doesnt have a name. Or at least, the DHCP "server" doesn't assign a domain, its set elsewhere. So I think Brooks is correct. The dhcp client should just ignore the domain setting and just assume that there is no domain associated with this interface. Should we suggest this to the OpenBSD client maintainer?
