Subject: IP autoconfig via DHCP?

Quick question...

Back in 2.2, we could use DHCP to auto-config the IP setup. In fact,
the choice was DHCP, BOOTP or RARP.

Now there is only BOOTP or RARP. What happened to DHCP support?

Later,

Nothing. It has been implemented in 2.2 very late and has never been ported
to 2.3/2.4 kernels.
