I do not have dhcp-client installed on my machine ("rpm -qa | grep dhcp" shows
nothing).

I do have a dhcp server on the network. Checking the /var/log/syslog on that machine
shows
no DHCPDISCOVER entry corresponding to my machine IP.
This problem is definitely not there in mdk-9.0 (run on the same machine from another
partition).

description:
Using mdk-9.1rc1. In drakconnect, a static IP has been assigned and the box
for dhcp is unchecked. In spite of that, "route -en" shows a dhcp related entry:
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface
192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
0.0.0.0 192.168.1.2 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
As is noticable, the static IP is working just fine. But the dhcp-client is still
trying
to get a dhcp address (in this case it has failed).
