dhcpcd problems
Hi all:
I got my cable modem installed today, and now I'm trying to get it
running under Linux. The Cable-Modem Howto directed me to the DHCP
Howto, and it instructed me to install the dhcpcd client. I downloaded
dhcpcd_0.70-5.deb and when I installed it I got the followinf error
message from dpkg:
(Reading database ... 49927 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace dhcpcd 1:0.70-5 (using dhcpcd_0.70-5.deb) ...
Stopping DHCP client daemon: dhcpcd.
Unpacking replacement dhcpcd ...
Setting up dhcpcd (0.70-5) ...
dpkg: error processing dhcpcd (--install):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
dhcpcd
The line indicating that it is stopping the DHCP client suggests that I
already had it installed(?).
dpkg says that it's half-configured now. I tried getting it off a couple
of the alternate sites with the same results.
Anybody know what I need to do? Am I on the right track to begin with?
TIA
