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

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)?

When you are using NetworkManager, you could/should use
/etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/ instead.

for me it's a big regression because I'm using the hooks to launch my
firewall scripts...
