I'm running default dhcpcd in SuSE 8.0 and there's no -s option given by the startup scripts. All options are set in /sbin/ifup-dhcp, and controlled by options in /etc/sysconfig/network/dhcp. I suggest you set DHCLIENT_DEBUG to yes. That will let you see every dhcp transaction sent and received (it will be logged in /var/log/messages).
Done that and the log file reports that dhcpcd requests a specific IP address. What is puzzling me, is that if dhcpcd is not run with the -s option, why dos it ask for a specific IP?
If all else fails you can always remove the cache file manually from /var/lib/dhcpcd/ (or run dhcpcd -k from the command line. That will also clear the cache and force the client daemon to request a brand new ip)
I removed the cache file and it complained about DHCP client already running. dhcpcd -k reports that dhcpcd is not running. I have tried all these things before. Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not. This is very funny .... I am gonna try to reboot with the cache file removed. Maybe it will help... Thanks
