Dhcp.leases manually edit (JT ISC) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Fri, 11 Mar 2022 23:48:54 -0600 From: JT ISC <jtis...@gmail.com> To: dhcp-users@lists.isc.org Subject: Dhcp.leases manually edit Message-ID: <CAPxL6Ag_jMRAU2iH9jXXsCrVtiF71=HTOFtRnMJt0D=d2s-...@mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" I have been working with ISC DHCP for a few years. I have manually stopped the dhcpd service, backed up the dhcpd.leases and dhcpd.leases~ files (just to be on the safe side), and then manually edited the leases file and removed a lease or two. Followed by starting the dhcpd process again and have not had any issues with dhcp server. However, I have been wondering if you can stop dhcpd service and add in a new lease the very end of the dhcpd.leases file using the correct format for lease start and end times as well as the MAC address. Then start the dhcpd service again and the dhcpd server update the lease that you just manually created with any new updated information. Appreciate everyone?s time!
