~$ uname -a Linux philly 2.4.21-pre3-ben0 #1 Sun Jan 12 18:23:37 EST 2003 ppc unknown unknown GNU/Linux ~$ apt-cache policy dhcp-client dhcp-client: Installed: 2.0pl5-14 Candidate: 2.0pl5-14 It works for me with a 2.4 kernel with a not-so-modified Ben default config. I have recently seen that dhcp-client need some options in the kernel config to work correctly but I have not investigate further. My experience with pump is that sometimes the interface is not configured and I had to call pump manually. But most of the time, pump did the job by itself. Since I use dhcp-client everything works all the time.
