Re: Comcast/@Home cable modems with OpenBSD



Doesn't work for me, and I use the following:

# cat /etc/hostname.dc0
dhcp NONE NONE NONE

# cat /etc/dhclient.conf
initial-interval 1;
send host-name "shrimpcookie";
request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, routers,
       domain-name, domain-name-servers, host-name;

I removed the write bit on resolv.conf with the same results. :|
