You don't really need any knowledge of the code.

That most certainly breaks things. Whatever was in the else clause was meant
to happen under some circumstances. Now it only happens for your "if" or
"elsif" case.


I don't use DHCP clients myself, so I'd have to take a closer look, but I'm
rather confident that it's a configuration issue rather than a problem in the
code. The issue of what the DHCP flag in the hosts file means seems to be
rather easy to misunderstand. If I can find the time, I'll take a look and
follow up. Isn't there a wiki page on this topic? There should be ...

Regards,
Holger
