Description

Using 2.4.4-RC (amd64) built on Tue Sep 18 17:52:29 EDT 2018

I've installed a new pfSense VM with 3 wan interfaces assigned by DHCP.
The second wan interface, does not get a reply from the dhcp server on that network.
After a reboot the machine all 3 gateways remain in 'pending' state..

Looking with htop there are 2 dpinger processes, both are supposed to write their .pid file in /var/run/. But for some reason neither did, or it was deleted.?.. Not sure yet.. will try and find out more tomorrow. dpingers are reporting their status when questioned by "socat stdio /var/run/dpinger_OPT2_DHCP~100.64.240.50~8.8.4.4.sock".. so not sure yet what went wrong there, it seemed to me this could be troublesome for some people though, so i decided to report today, investigate further tomorrow.. (i'm confident its 'supposed' to work though..)
