Subject: [Comm-en] Some compact 2.3 beta bugs

I have cable and the installation detect that I have a LAN (the
cablemodem connected to my ethernet card, that it was detected
perfecly), and I must use DHCP but when in the firt time (and next
boots...) of ALT Linux the DHCP daemon (dhcpcd) cant't provide the
correct IP to the eth0 and cannot connect to the net (I could use the
DHCP client "pump" as alternative, but not exist in 2.3b CD).

--- mike:
Actually was unable to reproduce the bug within our LAN which does use DHCP. 
Everything "just worked".

Is there something peculiar in your ISP setup?  And we definitely need more
details (/var/log/mesasges).
