contrib/isc-dhcp/client dhclient.c
Log:
If we have a working link again after connectivity loss, or if we need
to renew a lease, contact the dhcp-server directly instead of using
INADDR_BROADCAST all the time. This should fix some brain-dead dhcp
server implementations which give you all the time a new IP if the
lease has not yet expired.
Instead of using ICMP to check if the server is alive, we just check
the return value of sendto() and additionally have a timeout there.
