Subject: Bug#410307: dhcp3-client: -q command-line option has no
dhclient.conf equivalent
Date: Fri, 09 Feb 2007 15:50:50 +0100
X-Mailer: reportbug 3.33
Package: dhcp3-client
Version: 3.0.4-13
Severity: wishlist
It would be convenient to be able to specify in the configuration file
(rather than on the command-line) that dhclient should be quiet.
Indeed, it happens that dhclient is invoked by other programs which
don't let one specify additiona command-line options.
An example is the ifupdown package. It calls dhclient3 but it is not
possible to specify other options than those encoded in ifupdown.
Another approach would be that ifupdown calls an external script
which would be responsible for finding out a DHCP client installed
on the system. This script could in turn include /etc/default/*
files where one could specify arguments to pass to the DHCP client.H
