The difficulty I'm having is connecting at work, where a "DHCP client identifier" needs to be sent (presumably for an extra level of authentication). By adding
send dhcp-client-identifier "xx:xx:xx..."
to /etc/dhclient.conf, I can easily connect using the ISC dhclient:
/sbin/dhclient eth1
However, NetworkManager doesn't seem to pick up these settings. Am I right (from scanning previous list e-mails) that NetworkManager uses its own DHCP client code? If so, how to I configure it to send a dhcp-client-identifier (or use an external DHCP client program)? As far as I can tell, it is okay to always send this regardless of the access point, as DHCP servers that don't require it seem to happily ignore it in my experience.
