Adapter has "blah blah blah DCHP" in it's ifconfig entry in rc.conf, what am I missing? Do I need to place dhclient_enable="YES" in rc.conf or something like that? The man page for dhclient seems to assume it's always run from the command line, afaik, although the -b switch would indicate otherwise...
