No. The support for that would need to be in zoneadmd, and it's not there currently. I implemented the necessary DHCP parts back in build 57 (DUID-based client identifiers), but the Zones part never made it. CR 5005887 was closed based on the exclusive IP stack instances project, though it didn't solve the problem for shared IP stack zones. > Googling a bit around, I found a workaround at > http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/crossbow/faq/#ipinst_dhcpclient > > * How do I configure the non-global zone to be a DHCP client? This only works with exclusive stack instances, not shared. There's currently no way to do it with shared stack instances. I think there probably should be a way to do this, but now that 5005887 has shipped, we'd probably need to open a new RFE for it. -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun Microsystems / 35 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org
