I am running a fairly simple dhclient on my OBSD 4.4 box and it runs
as a firewall.

bge0 = lan
bge1 = wan dhcp to ISP

What I have discovered is that all works well UNTIL the ISP modem is rebooted.
At that point, dhclient seems to sleep and then VANISH.

For example...I am running fine and then reboot my ISP modem:
Here is what happens:

 06:45:48 fw dhclient[16611]: DHCPREQUEST on bge1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67
 06:45:55 fw dhclient[16611]: DHCPREQUEST on bge1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67
06:46:02 fw dhclient[16611]: DHCPDISCOVER on bge1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 4 06:46:06 fw dhclient[16611]: DHCPDISCOVER on bge1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 6 06:46:12 fw dhclient[16611]: DHCPDISCOVER on bge1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 11
 06:46:15 fw dhclient[16611]: DHCPREQUEST on bge1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67
 06:46:19 fw dhclient[16611]: DHCPREQUEST on bge1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67
 06:46:19 fw dhclient[16611]: DHCPACK from 75.9.96.1
 06:46:19 fw dhclient[16611]: bound to 75.9.X.X -- renewal in 300 seconds.
06:46:23 fw dhclient[16611]: DHCPDISCOVER on bge1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 13
 06:46:36 fw dhclient[16611]: No DHCPOFFERS received.
 06:46:36 fw dhclient[16611]: Trying recorded lease 75.9.X.X
06:46:39 fw dhclient[16611]: No working leases in persistent database - sleeping.


..and then nothing more. Sleep becomes death, until a reboot or a manual
run of 'dhclient bge1' is invoked.

Any thoughts?
