Package: dante-server
Version: 1.1.19.dfsg-3+b1
Severity: wishlist

Dante is a really useful tool, but when using dhcp to get external ip address 
it exits with error.

In http://blog.edseek.com/~jasonb/articles/dante_tunnel.shtml
the author suggests a perl script to change the configuration file after dhcp 
is run and set the new ip/device on danted.conf file, 
but this is not the correct solution.

If it were possible to set the external ip/external device from the command 
line we could just avoid stupid bug reports saying that
danted does not work due to a non-exitent external device (the one specified in 
the default config file).

In this way, danted can crash (as it does) when we disable the device it is 
using and we can load it again by using a dhcp exit hook.

Thanks in advance, 

Victor.
