[systemd-devel] Systemd-networkd -- Cannot acquire DHCP lease on bridge interface

[James Lott]

Hello,

There is no .network file for the bridge. Systemd-networkd is currently only in 
charge of setting up the interface. As you can see from the provided output in 
my original email, I am running the dhcpcd service directly from the command 
line (the output from each run of the dhcpcd service is included in that email 
as well).
