When I boot my RH73, it runs dhcpcd that tries to find a dhcp server around and aquire an IP address for me.
However, if I fail to connect to the LAN on time, dhcpcd fails and does not try again ever (unless I run it manually). I read from the dhcpcd manual that: dhcpcd will not fork into background until it gets a valid IP address in which case dhcpcd will return 0 to the parent process. In a case dhcpcd times out before receiving a valid IP address from DHCP server dhcpcd will return exit code 1 to the parent process. why is that? Isn't it more logical to hover around untill a server IS found? any idea how to cirumvent this?
