When you are using NetworkManager, you could/should use /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/ instead. Hmmm, how about telling this to all the maintainers whose packages drop their hooks to /etc/dhcp/*.d? This bug is years old, and leads to, for example, Samba not getting the WINS server configured through DHCP, and ntpd not getting the NTP server configured through DHCP. It prevents avahi-autoip from resigning a DHCP configured interface (not checked, but I guess so) and whatever else. Everybody seems to know about the dhclient hooks but there is not a single third-party hook in /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d - since years. I'm quite new to network-manager, is it really that hard to hook NM's dispatcher.d to, in turn, call /sbin/dhclient-script from there? thanks for your work regards Mario -- We know that communication is a problem, but the company is not going to discuss it with the employees. -- Switching supervisor, ATT Long Lines Division signature.asc Description: Digital signature

When you are using NetworkManager, you could/should use /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/ instead. With the dhcp hook I'm using the $reason (BOUND), $new_ip_address and $interface variables. How can I do this with the dispatcher? If I well understood it passes only two parameters to the scripts (interface and status up/down)? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
