Is seems that the /etc/network/interfaces file is parsed though. Where
does this happen? On Linux it is parsed by ifup/ifdown. And which
program calls socket() on Hurd to start the networking with pfinet?
(I know this question might be sent to help-hurd instead of bug-hurd,
but since this is related to my efforts getting the dhcp (server and
client) working on Hurd, I reply here. Please tell if I should change
mailing list.)
