ok. I’m making some progress. However, I cannot get the other configuration 
file merged into /var/lib/NetworkManager/dhclient6-eth0.conf. I’m putting the 
commands that work for dhclient into a file in 
/etc/NetworkManager/dhclient6-eth0.conf. Lines beginning with # get merged in, 
but actual commands are silently dropped. The line that works as an explicit 
config file for dhclient is:

send fqdn.fqdn “wibble.example.com <http://wibble.example.com/>”;

Guessing that I’ve got the syntax wrong, I tried one of the lines from the end 
of the merged file, assuming that the syntax is correct, but that didn’t get 
merged in either:

# stuff to include
also request dhcp6.client-id;
#send fqdn.fqdn “wibble.example.com”;

gets merged in thus (last three lines from NM):
# Created by NetworkManager
# Merged from /etc/NetworkManager/dhclient6-eth0.conf

# stuff to include
#send fqdn.fqdn “wibble.example.com";
also request dhcp6.client-id;
also request dhcp6.name-servers;
also request dhcp6.domain-search;

Where's my mistake/what’s the correct syntax?

Tim
