For the last year or so something changed in dhclient and/or my ISP resulting in dhclient being way too chatty with syslog and flooding /var/log/messages with this about every 75 minutes, when my DHCP lease is renewed: Nov 21 05:43:00 Frisket dhclient: New Network Number: 24.214.110.0 Nov 21 05:43:00 Frisket dhclient: New Broadcast Address: 24.214.110.255 I don't see any ready way to configure dhclient to mute this output. Placing a sed filter in /etc/syslog.conf would be one way to stifle the chattyness but that should be the avenue of last resort. How might I convince dhclient to be quiet and/or log elsewhere? -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
