Description Francis Montagnac 2006-02-14 16:18:53 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050922 Fedora/1.0.7-1.1.fc3 Firefox/1.0.7

Description of problem:
When the dhcpd server defines new domain name servers, a RENEW on a
client doesn't update /etc/resolv.conf with them.

This is I think a simple typo in /sbin/dhclient-script: references to

  $new_domain_servers and $old_domain_servers

instead of:

  $new_domain_name_servers and $old_domain_name_servers


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
dhclient-3.0.1-44_FC3

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. change the DNS servers in the dhcpd.conf files
2. wait for a renew on a FC3 client
3. verify /etc/resolv.conf
  

Actual Results:

Comment 1 Jason Vas Dias 2006-02-14 16:48:59 UTC
Thanks, well spotted. 

This bug has been in every Red Hat dhcp release since dhcp-3.0.1rc12 , but
was previously never triggered, as make_resolv_conf() was not being invoked 
during RENEW, owing to bug 173619 .

Red Hat no longer maintains FC-3 - you are strongly recommended to upgrade to
FC-4 / FC-5 . I'll send a fix for this bug to the Fedora Legacy project 
maintainers, and also build a version of the latest dhcp-3.0.3 with this
bug fixed for FC-3 - will update this bug when done.

Comment 2 Jason Vas Dias 2006-02-14 19:07:55 UTC
This bug is now fixed with:
FC-3: dhcp-3.0.1-52.FC3 http://people.redhat.com/~jvdias/dhcp/FC-3/3.0.1-52.FC3
      dhcp-3.0.3-22.FC3 http://people.redhat.com/~jvdias/dhcp/FC-3/3.0.3-22.FC3

FC-4: dhcp-3.0.2-32.FC4 (FC-4 updates)

FC-5: dhcp-3.0.3-22     (FC-5t3)

Comment 3 Fedora Update System 2006-02-14 19:44:17 UTC
From User-Agent: XML-RPC

dhcp-3.0.2-32.FC4 has been pushed for FC4, which should resolve this issue.  If these problems are still present in this version, then please make note of it in this bug report.

Comment 4 Jesse Keating 2006-08-13 13:51:03 UTC
This is not a security issue.  Fixed packages provided by Jason.  Closing.
