dhcp failover in 3.0.1/RHEL vs 3.0.4

[Darren]

Fail over definitely works the best in v.3.0.4.  In v.3.0.1 you are 
likely to run into odd problems from time to time.  I do not believe 
their are any show stoppers, however. v.3.0.3 was a definite improvement 
over v.3.0.1  (We skipped v.3.0.2 or there wasn't one .. I don't know 
which).
