Niets te danken ;) I didn't know that you were using Virtualbox. Since I've never used it before, I don't know how that would affect the config loadup. After re-re-reading your original post, I figured you must of had the rc.conf setting in place, or else it wouldn't have worked in the first place. Out of curiosity, does re-running `dhclient` rectify the situation when moving between different networks, without a cold start? fwiw, other than a couple of lab boxes, I don't have any FBSD boxes that are on DHCP...
