** Description changed:
- Binary package hint: logcheck-database
+ logcheck reports dhclient logs when renewing DHCP leases as recent
+ dhclients include the IP address in logs
- recent dhclient includes the ip address it is releasing and renewing.
+ Impact: installs with logcheck get spurious emails defeating the purpose
+ of logcheck (every time the lease is renewed, so e.g. every 24 hours).
- ^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ dhclient(-2.2.x)?: DHCP(NAK|ACK|OFFER)
from [.0-9]{7,15}$
- ^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ dhclient(-2.2.x)?: DHCP(REQUEST|RELEASE)
on [[:alnum:].]+ to [.0-9]{7,15} port 67$
+ Bug was addressed by updating the RE to allow for an optional IP address
+ in logs.
- should be replaced with:
+ TEST CASE:
+ Install logcheck, wait for a DHCP lease renewal in your syslog, wait for
logcheck's cron to run, see whether you get an email.
- ^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ dhclient(-2.2.x)?: DHCP(NAK|ACK|OFFER) (of
[.0-9]{7,15} )?from [.0-9]{7,15}$
- ^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ dhclient(-2.2.x)?: DHCP(REQUEST|RELEASE)
(of [.0-9]{7,15} )?on [[:alnum:].]+ to [.0-9]{7,15} port 67$
+ Regression potential: People with local changes need to merge conffiles.
