 The dhcpclient works correctly now. I succeed to send an identifier to 
 DHCP server.
 
 
 But now I have a problem dhclient run at boot time but doesn't get any 
 information from the DHCP server which log nothing during BSD boot.
 
 So ntpdate send an error when booting because there is not 
 domain-name-servers set in resolv.conf.
 
 However if i run the rc.d script after boot I get an address, see the 
 request in router monitoring. Bellow some transaction done just after a 
 boot:
