After a recent update, dhcpcd won't stay dead. I've got it |
| 2 |
configured to time out in 7 seconds: |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
/etc/conf.d/net |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
config_eth0=( "dhcp" ) |
| 7 |
dhcpcd_eth0="-t 7" |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
That sort of works, dhcpcd dies and returns 0 after 7 seconds |
| 10 |
if there is no server. The startup script gives up on that |
| 11 |
interface and goes on to the next one. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
However, after a recent update, it now appears that a second |
| 14 |
instance of dhcpcd is getting started immediately, and it runs |
| 15 |
forever, filling my system log with a never-ending stream of |
| 16 |
useless spew like this: |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Nov 4 22:19:34 ThinkGrant dhcpcd[15785]: eth0: trying to use old lease in /var/lib/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-eth0.info' |
| 19 |
Nov 4 22:19:34 ThinkGrant dhcpcd[15785]: eth0: checking 169.254.7.65 is available on attached networks |
| 20 |
Nov 4 22:19:35 ThinkGrant dhcpcd[15785]: eth0: adding IP address 169.254.7.65/16 |
| 21 |
Nov 4 22:19:40 ThinkGrant dhcpcd[15785]: eth0: broadcasting for a lease |
| 22 |
Nov 4 22:19:47 ThinkGrant dhcpcd[15785]: eth0: timed out |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
The second instance of dhcpcd never exits... |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Who is starting this second instance and why is it going into a |
| 27 |
never ending loop pulling bogus month-old IP addresse out of |
| 28 |
/var/lib/dhcpcd? |
