Subject: Any body using Cox@home internet
Yeah, I am using it on a Redhat 7.0 box:

1) DHCP client for COX (dhcpcd)
2) DHCP server for my internal net (for the house) <grin>
3) DNS, QMAIL and pop3.

A tip that took me 5 days to figure out: I never could get the scripts to work correctly
to dynamically get the IP from cox as written. My solution: give the card a static ip
(preferably the one that use probably will get from cox and and then afterward call
dhcpcd. Also, if you are running your own dns, use the the "-R" option for dhcpcd to
prevent its trashing of your resolv.conf file.
