I think this is more a matter of fixing dhclient. RCNG obviously expects
dhclient to generate a pid file based on the interface name. We should
fix dhclient instead of hack RCNG, I think.


Would you like to have a go at that? I think it would be rather easy. If
not I can do it (I always like to give people a chance to dig into the
source code themselves, especially when solutions are potentially very
easy to implement!).

Actually mbr fixed most of the problems with dhclient in 5.x. They should
be really trivial to move over into the DragonFly tree. Perhaps I'll
take a look at that in the morning.


Ex. you can do nice things like
dhclient rl0
dhclient dc0

Or once you've done dhclient rl0 and picked up an address say 192.168.1.71
at you house and go into the office with your laptop sleeping and can just plug
back in and dhclient will then pickup your office internal dhcp address of 10.129.6.7
