Dhcpcd appears to retrieve the IP 192.168.1.101,

conflicting IP yet).
However, when I check ifconfig, the IP address is incorrect (keeps using
last known IP).
1) dhcpcd does not remove any existing address that may be assigned at
startup.
2) Under linux, ifconfig only shows the 1st IPv4 address assigned. Use
`ip addr` to show other addreses.

This is a limtiation of the Linux ifconfig tool.

Oh..  Thanks.. I didn't know about the limitation.
Phew...  Sorry to have bothered you. :)

Thanks for taking time to explain what I was seeing.
