Package: isc-dhcp-client
Version: 4.2.2.dfsg.1-5
Severity: wishlist
File: /sbin/dhclient
Hi,
If you ever feel the need to do some coding, I have a couple of suggestions for
dhcp:
- make updating resolv.conf switchable, so that you can prevent it from doing so
- make setting the default gateway switchable
This can be accomplished by manually editting /sbin/dhclient-script but that
gives problems if you e.g. want to get def gw on eth0 via dhcp (but not on
eth1).
