Title:
dhclient fails to apply custom config outside of the /etc/dhcp
directory
Status in isc-dhcp package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
1.)
Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
2.)
Package version:
isc-dhcp-client 4.2.4-7ubuntu12.13
3.)
I have attempted to run dhclient using the '-cf' option to pass the
path to a custom configuration file in '/etc'. My custom configuration
differs from the default as it does not request a default router
gateway for the interface.
i.e.
dhclient -v -cf /etc/my_config.conf eth0
4.)
I would have expected that dhclient uses the configuration file in
'/etc' as the path is valid.
5.)
Instead, I observe that a default configuration is being used, i.e.
the router option is still being requested. I re-attempted the test
but this time placing the new configuration file in '/etc/dhcp' and
rerun the client:
 dhclient -v -cf /etc/dhcp/my_config.conf eth0
On this occasion, I observed that my custom config is being applied.
