Mathieu, In that case I believe the DHCPv6 server implementation in your router differs from the one I use on my network (dhcp-4.1.2-4.ESV.R2.fc13.i686 on Fedora 13). My DHCPv6 replies never contain any DNS information unless explicity requested by the client, while I understand yours always does.
I've looked through the client system but I cannot find any dhclient.conf file there. However, the dhclient.conf manual page differs significantly - I cannot find any mention of this "send dhcp6.oro" statement at all. However, what relevant stuff I do find, says the following: The request statement [ also ] request [ [ option-space . ] option ] [, ... ]; The request statement causes the client to request that any server responding to the client send the client its values for the specified options. Only the option names should be specified in the request statement - not option parameters. By default, the DHCPv4 client requests the subnet-mask, broadcast- address, time-offset, routers, domain-search, domain-name, domain-name-servers, host-name, nis-domain, nis-servers, ntp-servers and interface-mtu options while the DHCPv6 client requests the dhcp6 name-servers and domain-search options. Note that if you enter a ´request´ statement, you over-ride these defaults and these options will not be requested. So it appears this particular implementation/version will by default request the necessary options. The dhclient binary is found in the package dhclient-4.2.0-21.P2.fc14.x86_64. Let me know if you need any more help!
