The only clues in the dmesg are: [ 294.097876] warning: process `dhclient' gets w/ old libcap [ 294.097893] warning: process `dhclient' sets w/ old libcap So I'll try backing up the patch series to before: add-64-bit-capability-support-to-the-kernel.patch or so, and see if that's the problem. If anyone has any other ideas, let me know. -- Kevin Winchester - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
