I use ISC DHCP server with FAI. I have been wanting to migrate to KEA but have not done so. If I could I’d stay on ISC DHCP forever cause kea’s config is just awful. Just really really awful.

Debian plans to remove this package for the upcoming release (trixie) and I'm not sure how much work it may cause to sysadmin to migrate to a replacement, for e.g. the new DHCPD from ISC called kea. Did anyone already migrated to kea? Do you think you can easily migrate to kea or dnsmasq or other packages? Currently FAI provides examples for the dhcpd.conf for ISC dhcp, but if Debian removes the isc dhcp package, I cannot provide a working config for the trixie release in time and FAI users have to do it on their own. I'll try to convince the Debian release team to keep ISC dhcp for the trixie release, but some people want to remove it , because it's EOL and there will be no security support by Debian any more. What's your oppinion on that? -- best regards Thomas
