[OpenIndiana-discuss] [developer] 4174 - Removal of Sun DHCP server from gate

[Gary Gendel]

I did the port into oi-userland of ISC-DHCP but I haven't updated it for 
awhile.  I've been using it successfully ever since Sun DCHP broke the 
first time.  I've been playing with the IPV6 stuff in the hope of using 
DHCPv6 PD when connecting to my ISP, but I gave up and have been using 
an IPV4<->IPV6 tunnel instead.
