We have not.  I'm kind of waiting for the controversy over compiler versions to
settle out.  RH pre7.0 is using a newer compiler than the current StackGuard, and we
would have to forward port.  However, there's chat on linux-kernel suggesting that
the compiler in RH pre7.0 can't successfully compile a kernel, so the compiler may
change out from under us.

No, it's not a known bug.  I have Immunix 6.2 on my laptop, and use the
DHCP interface daily to connect ot our server.  Can you elaborate on your symptoms?

Thanks,
