Thanks for helping with testing out the patches.  I will put this fix in to an update for F-10.  The update should be available when F-10 ships.

Now it works, my config files survived!  Thanks.

Did not help, unfortunately.

I see what's happening here.  A change went in to the -24 release to suppress errors from source_config() in instances where ifcfg-DEVICE did not exist, but ${CONFIG} is not the full path to the ifcfg-DEVICE file. Here's the fix:

Can you make this change locally to your /sbin/dhclient-script and test it out?

Description of problem:
dhcp-4.0.0-18 behaved when I had in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 :
DEVICE=eth0
ONBOOT=no
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
NOZEROCONF=yes
PEERDNS=no
PEERNTP=no
PEERNIS=no
PERSISTENT_DHCLIENT=yes
MTU=1472
IPV6TO4INIT=no
IPV6INIT=no

But dhcp-4.0.0-30 tries to be smart and overwrites them.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.0.0-30

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. ifup eth0
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
dhclient-script ignore PEERDNS and PEERNTP.

Expected results:
Not writing crap to my /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/ntp.conf .
