I'm seeing several of my laptops fail to get a dhcp lease after the
April-23 yum update for f12. The server sees the dhcp request and
issues the correct IP address, but the client never seems to act upon
it. Both eth0 and wlan0 never have IPv4 addresses assigned. Strangely
IPv6 addresses do get assigned correctly (bith link-local and global) so
it isn't a case of the ethernet or wlan being down. Those requests do
go out and the reply gets acted upon.
Both NetowrkManager and dhclient were updated within the last two days.
I wonder if something is broken there. Are other folks seeing the same
breakage?
I've got the reverse problem - NM is trying to dhcp for my statically
configured adderesses. Again. However setting NM_CONTROLLED=no seems
to be working. Oddly, it did manage to get my v6 connection working.

Nobody believed that I could build a space station here. So I built it anyway.
It sank into the vortex. So I built another one. It sank into the vortex.
The third station burned down, fell over then sank into the vortex. The fourth
station just vanished. And the fifth station, THAT stayed!
