ObRelevance: I'm the Debian dhcp3 maintainer, and I've been extensively testing domain-search support in DHCP 3.1.x in Debian
The domain-search attribute is a new type, not a string, which is encoded differently on the wire. Adding option dns-domain-search-list code 119 = string; to dhcpd.conf and/or dhclient.conf will probably work fine if both the client and the server are the same pre-3.1.x version, but if the server is 3.1.x or some other server that supports the domain-search option correctly, it'll be sending it as the new domain list type, which will most probably get mangled by the client if understood at all. I do not recommend hacking such functionality into pre-3.1.x versions of DHCP. I also do not consider the functionality to be production-ready yet in 3.1.0 (and 3.1.1 is not looking much better yet either). -- Set domain and search entries correctly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/98618 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to dhcp3 in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
