--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2005-1095 2005-12-14 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Product : Fedora Core 4 Name : dhcp Version : 3.0.2 Release : 26.FC4 Summary : A DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server and relay agent. Description : DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a protocol which allows individual devices on an IP network to get their own network configuration information (IP address, subnetmask, broadcast address, etc.) from a DHCP server. The overall purpose of DHCP is to make it easier to administer a large network. The dhcp package includes the ISC DHCP service and relay agent. To use DHCP on your network, install a DHCP service (or relay agent), and on clients run a DHCP client daemon. The dhcp package provides the ISC DHCP service and relay agent. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Sat Nov 19 2005 Jason Vas Dias <jvdias@xxxxxxxxxx> - 11:3.0.2-26 - fix bug 173619: dhclient-script should reconfig on RENEW if subnet-mask, broadcast-address, mtu, routers, etc. have changed - apply upstream improvements to trailing nul options fix of bug 160655 - fix bug 167028 - test IBM's unicast bootp patch (from xma@xxxxxxxxxx) - fix bug 171312 - silence chkconfig error message if ypbind not installed - fix dhcpd.init when -cf arg given to dhcpd - make dhcpd init touch /var/lib/dhcpd/dhcpd.leases, not /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases - Allow dhclient route metrics to be specified with DHCP options: The dhcp-options(5) man-page states: 'option routers ... Routers should be listed in order of preference' and 'option static-routes ... are listed in descending order of priority' . No preference / priority could be set with previous dhclient-script . Now, dhclient-script provides: Default Gateway (option 'routers') metrics: Instead of allowing only one default gateway, if more than one router is specified in the routers option, routers following the first router will have a 'metric' of their position in the list (1,...N>1). Option static-routes metrics: If a target appears in the list more than once, routes for duplicate targets will have successively greater metrics, starting at 1. --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/4/ 00b6da04f62a6599400d8e730ef12bcc SRPMS/dhcp-3.0.2-26.FC4.src.rpm b368e14ccac561b800c9ad3a30d163b9 ppc/dhcp-3.0.2-26.FC4.ppc.rpm b4875e4f1d8ba5a1bfb15eb626482202 ppc/dhclient-3.0.2-26.FC4.ppc.rpm 36468328cdc49e59059e16ea6a209202 ppc/dhcp-devel-3.0.2-26.FC4.ppc.rpm d31838b622d3918910a811029814c9a7 ppc/debug/dhcp-debuginfo-3.0.2-26.FC4.ppc.rpm 27bf42add0a61c84f209df4759a9af65 x86_64/dhcp-3.0.2-26.FC4.x86_64.rpm b27d31feb5adf9c3f090eb48f6e0bbd6 x86_64/dhclient-3.0.2-26.FC4.x86_64.rpm 778305306a7f67357a335ed190587d3a x86_64/dhcp-devel-3.0.2-26.FC4.x86_64.rpm 5ae99e5cb41570ce4947dde18b55908f x86_64/debug/dhcp-debuginfo-3.0.2-26.FC4.x86_64.rpm b3fd2963210bd3b1ae6fde41a6e0cfc8 i386/dhcp-3.0.2-26.FC4.i386.rpm ee1775081c44d0d62360f2847f9a7cdb i386/dhclient-3.0.2-26.FC4.i386.rpm 1a27ba13896ede400ad4cfcb7f444a29 i386/dhcp-devel-3.0.2-26.FC4.i386.rpm 5039fc228bafc53a86395922ebf74cbb i386/debug/dhcp-debuginfo-3.0.2-26.FC4.i386.rpm This update can also be installed with the Update Agent; you can launch the Update Agent with the 'up2date' command. --------------------------------------------------------------------- -- fedora-announce-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-announce-list
