Second, it isn't possible to have more than one dhcpclient running (try it! I've tried the kue interface on the laptop with a ep0 card as well :-). The trouble is that you then will have to figure out which interfaces need to be managed by dhclient, so you are looking at more trouble than I was willing to handle. In general killing the dhclient is The Right Thing (tm).
