Hey,

considering this sequence:

        dhclient fxp0

now we have ip address & everything is fine.  dhclient keeps running

        dhclient fxp0

returns error 1. in syslog, it complains about the address already beeing taken, because of the running dhlient. However, it will set the ip address of fxp0 to 0.0.0.0. Now I'm left with an unusable system.

        killall dhclient
        dhclient fxp0

now it works again.

cheers
  simon
