Description:
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a protocol which allows
individual devices on an IP network to get their own network
configuration information (IP address, subnetmask, broadcast address,
etc.) from a DHCP server. The overall purpose of DHCP is to make it
easier to administer a large network.  The dhcp package includes the
ISC DHCP service and relay agent.

To use DHCP on your network, install a DHCP service (or relay agent),
and on clients run a DHCP client daemon.  The dhcp package provides
the ISC DHCP service and relay agent.

- exit(2) after sending DHCPDECLINE
  when dhclient has been started with '-1' (RHBZ #756490)

  (CVE-2011-2748, CVE-2011-2749, #729880)

dhcp-3.0.5-23.el5_5.2.x86_64 [884 KiB] Changelog by Jiri Popelka (2010-08-27): 
- The server's "by client-id" and "by hardware address" hash table lists
  are now sorted according to the preference to re-allocate that lease to
