dhclient will *always* remove all existing address on interfaces it is binding a lease to. Are you saying that the 2nd time around it is not re-assigning the address? Is your easy workaround to re-run dhclient, or is it something else? As soon as some builds finish here I will try to reproduce. .... Ken
