Description Jiri Popelka 2010-02-08 15:29:58 UTC

Description of problem:
BOUND section in 'man 8 dhclient-script' says:
Before actually configuring the address, dhclient-script should somehow ARP for it and exit with a nonzero status if it receives a reply.
In this case, the client will send a DHCPDECLINE message to the server and acquire a different address.

But when I try to add to from BOUND section exit with nonzero status,
dhclient crashes

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add 'exit_with_hooks 2' into dhclient-script's BOUND section
2. Run dhclient
  
Actual results:
dhclient sends DHCPDECLINE, but dies immediately afterwards

Expected results:
Unicorns shooting rainbows from their horn surrounded by singing pony's
