has anybody been successful using dhcpcd with linux?

i was testing with 2.1.96, but all versions ive got (dhcpcd-0.65,
dhcpcd-0.70, dhcpcd-1.3*, and the www.isc.org dhclient) refuse to set
the broadcast address to 0.0.0.0 (or 255.255.255.255) upon
initialization (to reset all ip parameters for the interface)....they
all come back with SIOCSIFBDRADDR: Cannot assign network address
(through the ioctl(...) interface)...

2.0.30 is mildly successful (still having problems that i am trying to
work out)...

if anybody is currently working, could you like send me some
information? (i dont think im doing it wrong, but there is always a
chance...)...

im using 2.0.30 (and 2.1.96)...
compaq deskpro 4000 pentium 166 mmx
2.2g hd
32m ram
3com 3c503 (etherlink II) network card....
