Am using lantronix module as a wireless bridge with the blackfin. Upon running dhclient eth0 i get the follwing message:

Listening on LPF/eth0/02:80:ad:20:31:b8

Sending on LPF/eth0/02:80:ad:20:31:b8

Sending on Socket/fallback/fallback-net

DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 tp 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 3

ip length 328 disagrees with bytes received 332.

accepting packet with data after udp payload.

DHCP offer from 128.237.224.3

execve (/etc/dhclient-script, ..): No such file or directory exiting.

ip length 328 disagrees with bytes received 332.

......

and it keeps repeating.

from the messages it is obvious that I do not have the dhclient-script. But I dont know if the error is caused because of that. Also I installed dhclient by choosing it in menuconfig. Is that not supposed to have dhclient-script installed too? How do I get the dhclient to work properly?

why are you using dhclient rather than dhcpcd ?

when I do a dhcpcd eth0 nothing happens. Infact it does not even complete and the prompt never comes back.
