From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0) Description of problem: The script /sbin/ifdown or /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifdown does not release the address obtain by DHCP. You should add at line 79 and 82 the following : dhcpcd -k ${DEVICE} to release the address obtain by DHCP. With this modification the client releases the address obtain by the DHCP (when using dhcpcd). Without this modification I had trouble making ddns work well. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Configure a network card using dhcp 2.start network 3.stop network (there is no dhcp-release send by the client) Actual Results: no dhcp-release send by client Expected Results: dhcp-release send by client Additional info:
