System: FreeBSD brain.timing.com 4.3-RELEASE-p14-TSC FreeBSD 4.3-RELEASE-p14-TSC #1: Tue Aug 28 13:44:14 MDT 2001 imp@brain.timing.com:/uv/staging/imp/FreeBSD-tsc-4/sys/compile/BRAIN i386
>Description:
Since obrien updated the paths in the dhclient-script(8) man page
(src/contrib/isc-dhcp/client/dhclient-script.8, rev 1.2,
1999/02/10 21:02:32), the path to dhclient.conf has been wrong.
It refers to /sbin/dhclient.conf but should be /etc/dhclient.conf.
Or it should just not refer to a path at all except the man page
for dhclient(8) since it can be overridden with the -cf switch
anyway.
>How-To-Repeat:
man dhclient-script
search for dhclient.conf
>Fix:
perl -pi -e 's,/sbin/dhclient.conf,/etc/dhclient.conf,g' dhclient-script.8
or even better (since you can invoke dhclient with -cf to override
the default location)...
perl -pi -e 's,/sbin/dhclient.conf,dhclient.conf,g' dhclient-script.8
