I tried replacing both ifconfig and dhclient with the versions that were built along with the new kernel, and that didn't work. The traditional (and documented) upgrade process for many years has been to boot the new kernel, make sure it's Ok, then update world. Obviously something different is needed this time, so it needs an UPDATING entry (assuming that all this is not just a bug). Doug -- [^L] Breadth of IT experience, and depth of knowledge in the DNS.
