Yes; check the media status word for IFM_AVALID.

Hi,

I I checked. Dhclient still initializes the
interface and brings it up itself. So there
is only one possibility:
You don't have a working link. Maybe it helps
if you add a interface define in /etc/dhclient.conf
wit the possible media.

OK, this is weird. I did not use your change to dhclient.
However, I did use Matthew Dodd's change to if_xl.c.
I rebuil
Have you done a "ifconfig xl0 0.0.0.0 up" before ?

I think I'll have to support this, if the interface is
not initialized.

Erm. What does 'ifconfig xl0' show you ? For dhclient
it looks like you have no link.

Hi,
Adapted to the newst source-version, the patch will look like
this. After I got home, I'll test it.

I know. But I'd consider that as a kernel bug, not dhclient fault.
Would it help the set the card into promisc. mode anyway, even
if we don't have link ?

dhclient is still relying on behavior from the kernel that isn't
guaranteed.
I posted a patch to if_xl.c that should correct the li
Hi,
I just did a cvsup of -CURRENT and rebuilt the world.
dhclient doesn't seem to work for me any more.
It looks like a problem with dhclient, and not the
kernel, because an older version of dhclient works fine.
Here is the output of dhclient -v -d xl0
