I am surprised that you say that dhcpd client is broken in 2.4.16. I am on a cable modem and must run my external facing NIC using the dhcpd client and it runs flawlessly since I have upgraded to the 2.4.16 kernel. Can you enlighten me on what was broken so I can check to see if I am having any problems which I have not noticed.
Thanks,

I could very well be full of &*(#... but when I updated to 2.4.16, I could no longer get an IP address using the DHCP client daemon. I did a search and found some discussion saying that the dhcpd client was broken in some cases in 2.4.16 and was fixed in 2.4.17. I can't find that thread just now, when I search again, but I haven't tried very hard... -ronc
