-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 the man page for dhcpcd says that by default dhcpcd will "NOT" set the hostname of the host to the hostname option received from the DHCP server. To override this (i.e., and force the hostname to be changed), use the -H option.
i'm executing the following: dhcpcd -h cx334400-g etho0 the cx334400-g is required by my DHCP server. however, after this request completes, my hostname has been changed to cx334400-g. why would this happen since (1) the default is to not change the hostname and (2) i did not specify the -H option? - -- steve ***** linux : http://exitwound.org mozart: http://mozart.sourceforge.net buck : http://www.BuckOwensFan.com ***** -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE65i6YpoyYujFtnVMRAsslAKCRMHTAfhvBrP9orwDyOtyv7//I3QCbBYSh pVCf6PsZe8B/e9V1nEzUs0Y= =Cddr -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
