Sorry for the late reply. I just read this thread and this issue affects me as well. Hopefully I'm not commenting on something that has been fixed but I can't test STABLE at the moment to verify that... I understand the idea that bad values should be rejected, but in reality, I have the

Thanks to Sebastian and Brooks for their quick replies. I took the easy way out and installed the ISC client which works just fine. The problem is my DHCP server is a DSL modem. I don't see any way to set the domain field. In addition, this interface is really not on a network but a
