[olug] dhclient and Cox dhcp

[kaygee]

Does anyone no what kind of fatted calf I have to kill to get OpenBSD's
dhclient to grab an ip from Cox's dhcp servers?

I tried the -r flag thinking maybe they were using obsolete RFC1531 (or
thereabouts) but the DHCP_DISCOVER requests just keep timing out.

I know I did this with dhcpcd before on RedHat but I decided to replace my
firewall with OBSD and it's kind of essential that it be able to get an
ip since it also does NAT for the rest of the network.

Thanks.
