Thanks to Sebastian and Brooks for their quick replies. I took the easy
way out and installed the ISC client which works just fine.
The problem is my DHCP server is a DSL modem. I don't see any way to
set the domain field. In addition, this interface is really not on a
network but a connection between two networks (its PPPoE), it make sense
that my ISP has configured the modem this way. The interface is one
that will be addressed only by address, it really doesnt have a name.
Or at least, the DHCP "server" doesn't assign a domain, its set elsewhere.
So I think Brooks is correct. The dhcp client should just ignore the
domain setting and just assume that there is no domain associated with
this interface. Should we suggest this to the OpenBSD client maintainer?

Hi all,
I just set up the latest 6.0 release, and I'm getting errors with the
DHCP client. Trying to pull a network address during start up, I get:
Bogus domain search list 15: domain_not_set.invalid
This repeats several times before giving up. Google tells me that this
problem was report by two users on the bsd-current list. No one ever
replied to their inquiries (at least on the list), so I thought to try
once more to see if there's any interest in addressing this issue.
More info was in the original post:

We should really bitch and then ignore this value when it's bogus rather
than rejecting the lease. We should also probably allow underscores
since they are popular among clueless Microsoft admins. Please try the
follow patch.
