I've recently run into a situation similar to the original posters, and...

Something like:
Unfortunately, supersede doesn't cut it (for me). I have two interfaces, one wired and one wireless. Both addresses are negotiated via DHCP. However, I do /not/ want to use the DNS servers provided via the wireless connection. Short of statically mapping my DNS servers into place (something I'd really rather avoid), there is nothing I can do. Even if I coax the wired interface into negotiating its address second, as the lease times on the two links are different, I will be flip-flopping betwixt the two sets of DNS servers for the duration of the connection. I've often wondered why dhclient.conf doesn't have an 'ignore' directive. There's a 'require' in there; it doesn't seem like much of a stretch to 'ignore' something. - Damian _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
