Actually it didn't have exactly what I was looking for, but it got me looking in the right place- here: http://gentoo-wiki.com/NetworkManager#Gnome_Specifics didn't actually narrow it down, but I have 2 copies of dhclient.conf in either etc, or etc/dhcp. And send-hostname has to use quotes " ". Stupidly, dhclient-xxx.conf does bugger all. Which is what confused the issue- reading the actually scripting makes you think they might actually do something. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
