Thanks, I'll look into this.

I don't think I changed the defaults, and I do get an IP address on
ath0, but it doesn't do me any good until I manually correct the
resolv.conf file to point at the dns server on my router. The strange
thing is, dhclient *does* modify resolv.conf, changing the search line
from
search SMUNET.SMU.CA
to
search SMUNET.SMU.CA, no-domain-set.aliant
which is, it adds my home domain, but doesn't delete my work domain, and
it leaves the nameserver lines pointing at my work dns.

Thanks,
