That implies that each package which wants to have hooks run on dhcp configuration would need to support two different interfaces. I don't think that's at all sensible. NM should just be fixed to support the existing dhclient interface. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.

On every system, both upgraded and fresh installs, i use a script (first attachment) for updating a DNS record through DNSSEC. Using /etc/network/interfaces or invoking dhclient directly correctly updates the DNS record (second attachment). Using network-manager the DNS record update script doesn't seem to run (third attachment). On a laptop it is inconvenient to constantly reconfigure devices. For desktops, a workaround is to have a dhcp entry in /etc/network/interfaces for the relevant connection. As a side note, the script is designed to work with PPP ip-up.d as well. However, I haven't yet found a way to configure network-manager to dial up to 3G over a bluetooth connected modem. It may apply here similarily though. Wvdial works with the script.
