dhcp and firewall

[m.w.chang]

I noticed on the side-bar of linux-sxs, there is no entry for DHCP which 
is quite popular among cable modem users.

BTW, is /etc/..../ifup-dhcp a standard script to be executed whenever 
the host init the eth device with dhcp protocol? where is the usual 
location of that script?

I have seen questions about manually releasing and obtaining a new IP 
via ISP's DHCP. What commands should they use?
