udhcp parameters when called from interfaces file

Sorry,

What I mean is that when I set my interface to use DHCP within the interfaces file, I do not set the udhcp command line, it is set somewhere else and automatically started for me.  I am trying to locate where this is set.  I thought it was at compile time, but not sure if was in the udhcp compilation or the busybox compilation.

Thanks,

    where can I change the default behaviour for the command line for udhcpc to
    use when called from interface file, so I can make it fork to background if 
    lease isnt immediately obtained?

  udhcpc --help?

  Unless I'm missing something (I'm not sure what you mean by interface file), passing -b to udhcpc will make it background if a lease is not immediately obtained.
