No probem at all. > Short: Does NM run dispatcher.d scripts if dhclient renews an IP?

So your DNS is updated by the client, not by the server. You could use cron for that, possibly. I don't think you can run specific scripts from dhclient when it's run with NetworkManager's action binary instead of dhclient-script, but let's wait for other responses. Therefore it looks like you want to get back the DHCP-based scripting capabilities with NetworkManager. It would be possible to modify the NM dhclient module. > We create and maintain this entries using a dispatcher > script in NM.

If it's 20 days, a cronjob checking for NM connection and acting upon it might be easier.
