12 Only dhcpcd = DHCP-client-daemon -- it doesn't even HAVE a DHCP server to
13 run, so it wouldn't run one. Of course, that means it doesn't have a
14 service to run either, so there's no dhcpcd to /be/ at the default (or any
15 other) runlevel.

17 You are correct in what controls dhcpcd and sending and getting replies
18 to DHCP requests, tho, the net service scripts, configured with
19 /etc/conf.d/net.
