Since I switched to kernel 2.6.15-gentoo-r7 (from r5), with an identical
.config
file, dhcpcd doesn't stay alive as a daemon:
- it starts okay at boot time and eth1 gets its address from IAF, then it dies
- when the lease time's over, I don't have internet access anymore until I
rebbot.
What gives ? Anyone got the same problem ?
I have the same problem, I'm running 2.6.15-r1. I was thinking it was
hardware related, as I've been unable to find any similar cases in
forum/list/web searches. Maybe I'm not searching for the 'right'
terms, but I've been operating Gentoo for about a month now and this
problem has persisted.

I can't actually say. However, if it's the dhcpcd that comes with
net-misc/dhcp
then that client has a persistence problem and the standalone client -
net-misc/dhcpcd is a better choice.
* net-misc/dhcpcd
Latest version available: 2.0.2
Latest version installed: 2.0.2
Or perhaps - net-misc/pump, might be a better choice?
I've never heard of it, though I will definitely check it out.
Thanks adj, for asking the question that I hadn't gotten around to
asking yet, and thanks Bob for the suggestions.
