To make matters worse - I just ran system-config-network. It does
not automatically stop the existing dhcpclient running.
Netconfig used to do this.

I used to let DHCP run to setup the box as I install the OS.
Later when I receive IP information - I would just run netconfig.
then do service network restart and the box would be live.

When I run system-config-network it gives me errors about the
dhcpclient still running.
