To fix it just do: chown :dhcp /lib/dhcp3-client/call-dhclient-script chmod 4754 /lib/dhcp3-client/call-dhclient-script Something is really screwed in the way that dhcp3-client creates the dhcp user.

Your fix "apt-get install --reinstall dhcp3-client" did the trick, thanks! Keep up the good work. I had the exact same error as you did for dhclient.
