I'm trying to use dhcpcd on my SuSE 8.0 Box to obtain an IP #,DNS #,etc.
from my isp (COX) when the computer boots. It appears to work, then it
looks like it's modifying resolv.conf. But at the end it is waiting for a
server response. For what? Was it unsuccessful? I can't tell. Also
resolv.conf never gets modified or creates any backups. Any ideas what's
going on?
Here is the relevant part of boot.msg(there was no /var/log/dhcpcd.log)
