If the IP address of a remote system has changed it most likely has to
do with where it gets its IP address.  That would raise questions about
the dhcp server.  But, I feel that multiple observations are being
stated as well as multiple supposed problems.

I think you are trying to solve a "slow boot" problem....but may be
intertwining it with other things.

In any event....

Using shorthand would presume that everyone uses it.  I feel that if one
is going to use shorthand it is "ok" as long as they first indicate it
first.  For example, if I use an acronym  I should first do something
like "Free Trade Agreement  (FTA)".  This lets people know what FTA will
mean from now on.  Same with IP address....

OK.  Hope you track down what the error messages in the boot log were
all about at some point.

The pause at sendmail and sm-client normally have to do with DNS
requests.  If it is only several seconds (don't know what a long second
is...  :-) :-) )  then it is probably not an issue.

I really don't know if you have any boot problems.  The time it takes to
boot is often a subjective observation and unless you've quantified how
long it used to take and how long it now takes it really is difficult to
determine what it "should" be.

If the only pause you've noticed was at sendmail and sm-client then
chances are things are running pretty good.
