Re: Problem setting up DHCP with Virtual Box

Looks like your /etc/rc.conf is more or less:

        ...
        dhclient=YES
        ...
        if [ -r /etc/defaults/rc.conf ]; then
                . /etc/defaults/rc.conf
        fi
        ...

Please put your changes after the line "# Add local overrides below" so they
will not be overwritten by /etc/defaults/rc.conf.
