The mailing lists refer to a patch I never found. i mailed the dhcp maintainer (mellon@hoffman.vix.com) about this and another minor bug back in june of '98 (with a url for the patch no less) and was told the bugs were fixed in 3.0 and he didn't have time to port the fixes back to 2.0. as far as i know, 3.0 still isn't available. heck, 2.0 is still in beta. haven't tried it yet, but it looks like the most recent beta release (10) includes code to initialize only the requested interfaces.
