[Devil-Linux-discuss] setting dhcpcd?

[Michael H. <mik...@ho...>]

Had to replace my configuration file, and I can't for the life of me recall=
 how to set dhcpcd to do the broadcast DHCP_REQUEST rather than the DHCP_DI=
SCOVER.  I've Googled long and hard to no avail.  Setup seems to create a c=
onfiguration that sends DISCOVER by default.  My new ISP, Comcast, doesn't =
respond to DISCOVER, but prior to my old floppy disk dying, it was respondi=
ng to REQUEST.  My old configuration was sending REQUEST first, and if fail=
ing then sending DISCOVER, so I must have been able to set it years ago whe=
n I first set up my router.

Are there any known problems with the default Devil Linux config and Comcas=
t?  I just moved, expecting that I'd be able to plug in my router box to th=
e new modem and be up and running.  Clients on the router though were no lo=
nger getting DNS.  I was going to try running NAMED service, but then my fl=
oppy disk died.
