Hey folks.  I am still working on dhclient to set up a FreeBSD system
on a cable modem.  I currently have a venerable Linux system there, and
want to replace it.

Anyway, I have been reading the dhclient associated manpages, and I
read on the list that /etc/dhclient-exit-hooks could be called several
times when a lease was obtained, and that a 'REASON' variable was set.

I wonder if anyone knows of a web site or howto dump that has
documentation on the possible settings of the REASON variable, and
what syntax restrictions, if any, exist for the hook scripts.  A few
example dhclient-enter-hooks and dhclient-exit-hooks scripts would be
awesome too, but if you can just help me find the FM . . .

TIA and HAND
Lou
