RTNETLINK answers: File exists
If you've come across error "RTNETLINK answers: File exists" when using dhclient to renew IP address, here's how I did it:
The -r option releases current configuration for the interface, allowing dhclient to create new config file.
root@SERVER02 :dhclient eth0 -r
root@SERVER02 :dhclient eth0
The -r option releases current configuration for the interface, allowing dhclient to create new config file.

Thank you m(_ _)m
I went through so much troubles and I wish I found your page earlier...
Finally solved with assistance from this post, thanks so much.
Why doesn't anyone think a "file exists" message which fails to state WHICH file already exists is a bug?
Did the trick. Thanks a lot!
Ah, thanks a lot for this!
