Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.

However, I don't believe the behaviour described is wrong. the dhcp-
client is run during the initalisation of the network interface, which
should/can only be run as root (or indirectly as root with sudo).
Therefore, the permission will always allow the writing of the lease.

If the lease cannot been written, please provide the error messages. You
probably can find them in the file "/var/log/messages".

I would like to close this report if there are no objections.
