Crist, I had ifconfig_ep0="DHCP" coded in my rc.conf. I don't know why my fingers typed it the way they did. :-| I tinkered some more, then out of frustration typed dhclient on the command line. It complained about bpf not being there. I want back to my conf source and found that I had accidently deleted the pseudo-device bpf when I was removing the stuff I didn't need. This problem is now fixed. I'm still having problems with the dhcp server. I ran sysinstall again and looked where you pointed me. No dice. I looked at the ftp server at: ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-4.1-release/net/ and the isc-dhcp2 and isc-dhcp3 files are not there. I looked at the 4.0-release directory and isc-dhcp2 is there. This agrees with sysinstall on my 4.0-release filewall machine. I do not know where to go from here. Anybody have a suggestion? Cheers...
