1 Hey all,
2
3 I've setup DHCP on Linux for the first time (2.6.12-gentoo-r9) and most
4 things seem to work well. The problem I'm having is that we have
5 multiple domains that I need populated in the "search" parameter of
6 /etc/resolv.conf (e.g. "search joesbarandgrill.com jbg.com"). I checked
7 /lib/rcscripts/net.modules.d/helpers.d/config-system, but with my
8 limited knowledge of how the rc scripts work, I didn't see that it would
9 do this. One other caveat is that the boxes serving up DHCP addresses
10 are Active Directory -- I've heard rumors that this behavior may be
11 another MS example of failing to adhere to standards.
12
13 I could easily hack config-system to hard-code the default search
14 domains, but I'm looking for a more permanent "real" fix.
15
16 Thoughts?
17
18 TIA!
