This is on NetBSD 5.0.2 i386 also tried on current kernel a couple days 
old.

I have tried dhcpcd in NetBSD base and also 5.2.6 (I updated pkgsrc 
locally for this).

The interface is ral0. I use ifconfig to defined my nwid and nwkey 
(wpa_supplicant doesn't work for it -- I don't know if that is related).
Then I try to use dhcpcd and it will get an IP, but immediately loses 
it.

If I use dhclient (in NetBSD base), it works immediately.

If I use dhcpcd (after using and killing dhclient), it will assign the 
IP again and will not lose it.

Please let me know what steps I should run to provide troubleshooting 
details.
