Subject: [gentoo-user] new dhcpcd behaviour
Date: Sun, 2 Dec 2012 15:18:38 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121202201838.GA1118@ca.inter.net> (raw)

I updated to Openrc 0.11.6 yesterday & on waking the machine up today
& starting DHCP from a terminal (as I always do),
instead of a long list of interactions with the router
there's  1  line "dhcpcd[1035]: sending commands to master dhcpcd process".
There's also a new display in Gkrellm 'sit0', which is new to me.

Everything is working, but can anyone explain the change ?

Also, I have PPP installed (2.4.5-r3): do I still need this with DHCP ?
-- I suspect it's left over from pre-router days.
