Hello ... I'm having trouble getting DHCP to work properly on a 2.2.7 box through the PCCARD system. I've change pccard_ether to DHCP and dhclient runs, but for some reason the default route is not added properly. I've added tons of debugging to /etc/dhclient-script and it appears to add the default route but the route itself never appears. All the references are by IP so I don't believe it's a nameserver lookup problem. Is anyone working on this or knows anything about what's going on? It think there may be a race condition but dhclient-script is a tangled mess and I don't have the time at current to hack up a shorter substitute. I can replicate it on my Digital as well as a Dell, and adding the default route manually appears to get everything going. Running 'route monitor' in another window while putting the ethernet card in is interesting. I get *tons* of RTM_FAILs trying to reach the DHCP host (which is the same as our nameserver so it's hard to discern what it's trying to talk to). I can collect more data if anyone can help me out with this. Thanks much for any assistance ...
