From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 Galeon/1.2.0 (X11; Linux i686; U;) Gecko/20020408 Description of problem: When raising a dhcp configured interface, dhcpcd clobbers /etc/yp.conf with any received NISSERVER information. If this information is partial or incorrect, this can be annoying. Create a PEERNIS ifcfg variable, akin to PEERDNS, to allow users to disable this behavior. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.edit /etc/yp.conf 2.ifup eth0 (from server supplying NISDOMAIN) 3.cat /etc/yp.conf Additional info: patches against initscripts-6.67-1: --- ifup Sun May 26 22:55:38 2002 +++ ifup.peernis Sun May 26 23:15:47 2002 @@ -150,6 +150,10 @@ PUMPARGS="${PUMPARGS} -d" DHCPCDARGS="${DHCPCDARGS} -R" fi + if [ "${PEERNIS}" = "no" ]; then +# PUMPARGS="${PUMPARGS} -?" # need to look this up for pump + DHCPCDARGS="${DHCPCDARGS} -Y" + fi echo -n $"Determining IP information for ${DEVICE}..." # DHCP clients need DNS to be available, and we don't know --- sysconfig.txt Mon Mar 25 09:26:55 2002 +++ sysconfig.txt.peernis Sun May 26 23:12:42 2002 @@ -516,6 +516,10 @@ PEERDNS=yes|no modify /etc/resolv.conf if peer uses msdns extension (PPP only) or DNS{1,2} are set, or if using pump or dhcpcd. default to "yes". + PEERNIS=yes|no + modify /etc/yp.conf when using DHCP configured interfaces if + NISDOMAIN is received from DHCP server. default to "yes". + Currently applies to dhcpcd only.
