Wow! This is _very_ interesting! How did you know to even suggest this?
I mean are these things documented on some man page that I mised?
Well, anyway, that first part sure sounds like a perfect fix for the
first of the two issues I described. But as regards to that second
part, maybe that's doing a but more than what I want.
I don't want the DHCP stuff to set -no- routes at all... I still do
want it to create a route to 192.168.1.0/24. I just don't want it
make any change to the default route that would otherwise be set,
you know, as a result of the defaultrouter= statement in my /etc/rc.conf
file.
So is there a nice clean & simple way to get the DHCP stuff to only
create just that route to 192.168.1.0/24 , while leaving the default
route alone?
Regards,
rfg
P.S. Oh yea... and one other question... at the top of this new
/etc/dhclient-enter-hooks file, should I be putting "#!/bin/sh" ?
Is that OK? Is it needed?
