 I see several dhcp clients available: pump, dhcpcd, and dhcp-client.
 There's almost certainly more available that aren't debianized. I was
 wondering what the differences are between them, which one people
 recommend and why.

dhcp-client has a hook that enables easy site configuration.  For
instance, I update my dyndns.org record in that script.

 For my part, i've been using pump, patched to have an option to cut down
 on the amount of junk it dumps to syslog (one day it filled my 400M /var
 partition... the next i patched it). Haven't had any problems other than
 that.

Pump adds about twenty lines a day to my syslog, unpatched.  Maybe
they've improved it?
