Public bug reported:
In a clean Ubuntu 11.10 server install, dhclient3 is run with a
configuration parameter that instructs it to write lease files in the
"/var/lib/dhcp3". That directory is missing in the install, thus no
lease file is written.
# ps ax | grep dhclient3 | grep -v grep
665 ? Ss 0:00 dhclient3 -e IF_METRIC=100 -pf
/var/run/dhclient.eth0.pid -lf /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.eth0.leases -1 eth0
# ls -l /var/lib/ | grep dhcp
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2011-12-30 16:24 dhcp
(no dhcp3 dir!)
# ls -l /var/lib/dhcp/
