           Summary: dhcp doesn't bind to dummy0
           Product: Codex
           Version: stable grimoire
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2

For some crazy reason the upstream dhcp people descided to #define out support
for dummy interface devices in dhcpd so it can't bind to an interface named
'dummy.*'

This was found in the code in:
includes/cf/linux.h:#define SKIP_DUMMY_INTERFACES
work.linux-2.2/common/discover.c:#ifdef SKIP_DUMMY_INTERFACES

This seems kind of a lame restriction for the upstream people to do I'd like 
to
see a patch to comment out the #define SKIP_DUMMY_INTERFAcES so people can 
bind
to dummy interface devices if they like.
