weird that dhclient functions

["Kevin Wang" <kevinwang1975@hotmail.com>]

Hello, list,

My Woody get its IP from DHCP server by running a process as below:

306 ?        S      0:00 /sbin/dhclient-2.2.x -q eth0

The thing weird is that sometimes I can see 2 same processes of that in PS
output, but sometimes just 1.

While 2 processes exist, the network connection would be well kept. But in
case just 1 process exist, sometimes the connection would be dropped down
for no reason.


Also, it is still using an old version of dhclient in my box, although I've
upgrade kernel to 2.4.27. Do I need to do something for that?

Many thanks!

Kevin Wang
