hi, NM uses nm-dhcp-helper as network configuration script for dhclient as follows , how to confiure dhclient-script file within NM ? /sbin/dhclient -d -q -sf /usr/libexec/nm-dhcp-helper -pf /var/run/dhclient-eth0.pid -lf /var/lib/NetworkManager/dhclient- 5fb06bd0-0bb0-7ffb-45f1-d6edd65f3e03-eth0.lease -cf /var/lib/NetworkManager/dhclient-eth0.conf eth0 Thank you very much for any help you can provide.
Hi, You cannot (*). When NetworkManager runs dhclient, then this is mostly an implementation detail for doing DHCP. Sure, it honors dhclient's config files in /etc/dhcp and it also dispatches the dhclient hooks. That is very powerful (since it's just arbitrary scripts that get executed), but it's also undesirable because the funcitonality is not available with dhcp=internal plugin and not available via NetworkManager API and NetworkManager mostly doens't know what is happening there. But in general, this is not supposed to give the user direct access to dhclient. (*) well, of course you can do all kind of hacky solutions, like replacing /usr/libexec/nm-dhcp-helper with a wrapper script. It might be better to explain what you ultimately want to do. Instead of asking how to do something that you think might be a solution for you (without explainging what your actual problem is). best, Thomas
