Please don't worry about the exact package, but your assessment about this perl
script being executed is fully correct. May I ask you to add additional debug
output in
<YOUR NFSROOT>/usr/lib/fai/dhclient-perl
via simple
print "# some output\n"
statements? All of this should end up as comments in boot.log. I believe that
the key point must be the test in line 65 ("if ($ENV{$dhcpname}) ..."), which
should evaluate to true in case your NIS domain doesn't contain a "+", but
evaluates to false otherwise. You might also want to print the entire contents
of the %ENV hash at this point.
Thanks a lot,
Michael
