<pre wrap="">I did what I usually do when I get stuck in a situation like this one - examine the source and modify it to suit my own needs. Problem solved - no more mindless attempts by dhclient to connect to the dhcp server when half of the lease is still valid, just instant renewal when needed!

<br>
could you be so kind as to share your patches. I have the same
problem with my cable modem and provider and<br>
get a filled up log file as follows until I kill dhclient and
restart it. Running<br>
dhclient-4.1.1-18.P1.fc12.x86_64.<br>
