[Bug 392826] Re: dhcp3-server is launched before NetworkManager and thus doesn't find interfaces

[Dazed_75]

Jacob,

NM what I said about the assignment operator.  Seems that is not true
for the Bourne shell in the expression for a test or conditional clause.
Also not true for dash (the sh replacement used in some systems), or
even in other shells set for POSIX compliance.  It is also true that the
== operator is not valid in sh or dash.

That said, it looks like the problem is more related to the evolution
from fixed configuration to dynamic to accommodate todays more dynamic
hardware environment.  Perhaps because a DHCP server is [wrongly]
thought to be only useful in a non-dynamic server environment, we have
this situation where the dhcp3-server configuration methods were
abandoned rather than updated.

I don't grok the correct fix yet, but have found the logger command to
be very useful in tracking down what is happening.
