I've never used pump, but it seems to have --release (-r) and --renew (-R) options. dhcpcd will do a release when it gets SIGHUP (dhcpcd -k will do this for you), but I don't see how to make it do a renew. All that said, I use Derek's ifdown/ifup method meself. :) Karl ********************************************************** To unsubscribe from this list, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the following text in the *body* (*not* the subject line) of the letter: unsubscribe gnhlug **********************************************************
