Hi,
Just noticed that busybox 1.7 is released, and some new functions added
. IMHO, I'd like to suggest that an option should be added to assign the
server and client port in udhcp[cd], i.e.
These two ports
#define SERVER_PORT     67
#define CLIENT_PORT     68
can be assigned when run udhcpc and udhcpd. This is very useful when
there is an existing dhcp service in the network subnet, and if people
would like to put another dhcp service with customized port.

My two cents.
Steven.
