Hi,
I've noticed that since two or three weeks, my computer takes a bit longer to shutdown. After investigation, it seems that dhclient3 wasn't terminated with SIGTERM so that I have to wait until SIGKILL. I've tried to boot in single mode and kill dhclient3 with SIGTERM : it simply does nothing.

After doing a lot of hacky things, I've found a kind of workaround. My network interface was declared as "allow-hotplug eth1", and I replaced this line by "auto eth1", and now everything works as expected.

But anyway, I would have expected that dhclient3 cleanly shutdowns itself at computer halt.
