Hi I just noticed that dhclient takes 'ages' to write it's pidfile. Shell-constructs similar to this dhclient -q -1 -pf /etc/dhclient.pid fxp0 [ -e /etc/dhclient.pid ] && kill -9 `cat /etc/dhclient.pid` do not work because dhclient is too slow in writing its pid file. is this the expected behaviour with pid-file writing daemons? thanks, t.
