Well.


Originally, within /etc/rc, I placed the call to the dhcp client before
all the other network stuff was set up.  This time I removed de0 from
rc.conf and placed the dhcp client after all the other network stuff was
done.  Now apache responds right away and I don't get the llinfo error
anymore.  This seems more like a bandage than a solution.

Before, route would complain that file already exists since de0,
defaultrouter, netmask and broadcast was already configured by the dhcp
client.

Now, route complains that network is unreachable since de0 hasn't been
configured yet.  In fact, default router and other settings probably
don't happen until the dhcp client sets them up.  All indications show
that route is failing to set the routes.

What's bizarre is that the netstat and ifconfig output from before and
now are both the same.

This probably is an indication that there is partially incompatible
between the isc dhcp client and route.  Does someone have a different
take on this?  Can anybody point me to where I can actually see what
route is doing?

TIA
