So you're saying that I shouldn't be using DHCP? No solution for it? Man, the
company that I work for
depends on the token-ring network a BIG time. We have very small ethernet for
clients testing purpose.
I just want to show off my FreeBSD box to my co-workers.



DHCP, like many other things, assumes that only ethernet packets exist in
the world.  It sees the token-ring packet as a broken ethernet packet and
ignores it.
