Hello, I don't know if i miss something, but in my dhcpcd installation dhcpcd.exe is never run. The process as "ps aux" reports is : root 32281 0.0 0.0 1752 284 ? Ss 11:08 0:00 /sbin/dhcpcd -h willow -c /etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd.exe -G 192.168.0.1 -R -o eth1 And the file "/etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd.exe" definately exists. And even if I change the config to run "/etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd.dumy" (does not exist) I don't get an error message. Has somebody any idea? (I already tried the reinstallation) Thanks Dirk emerge -pv dhcpcd [ebuild R ] net-misc/dhcpcd-2.0.6 USE="-build -debug -static" 0 kB emerge --info Portage 2.1.1_pre1-r1

Please post the output of ls -l /etc/dhcpc And attach /etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd.exe to this bug Thanks
Created attachment 89714 [details] dhcpcd.exe
(In reply to comment #1) As requested: ls -l /etc/dhcpc -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 225 Jun 21 10:09 dhcpcd.exe
Well, that looks ok. Try putting this before the logger call in dhcpcd.exe echo $$ > /tmp/dhcpcd.test restart dhcpcd or net.eth0 and see if it exists or not
(In reply to comment #4) No, dhcpcd.test is not created.
Does the file get created if you call /etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd.exe by hand? Does dhcpcd actually configure eth1? Do earlier versions of dhcpcd work? If so, which? I've got a feeling that dhcpcd-2.0.3 may work for you ....
(In reply to comment #6) Yes the call by hand does create dhcpcd.test and Yes dhcpcd does configure the interface. This is the corresponding line from the system log: dhcpcd[3804]: your IP address = 86.206.99.10 I did not use dhcpcd for a while. The last time might be 6 month ago. Then it worked. Now I want to restart snort whenever the interface is reconfigured. I cant use post_up() since an IP change is not causing the interface to go down and up.
(In reply to comment #6) > Do earlier versions of dhcpcd work? If so, which? I've got a feeling that > dhcpcd-2.0.3 may work for you .... You were right. I installed 2.0.5 ==> no go. And after that 2.0.3 ==> works So it seams to be clearly linked to 2.05 and 2.06 But am I alone here? Something special on my stystem or something general?
Created attachment 89728 [details, diff] Use unsigned ints for lease times Please try this patch - if it doesn't work it should state what file it will exec when called with the -d option.
This seems to be a gcc-4.1.1 bug on ppc - using gcc-3.4.6 fixes the issue. CC'ing josejx who's looking into it and the ppc herd in general so they are aware of the issue.
(In reply to comment #9) > Please try this patch - if it doesn't work it should state what file it will > exec when called with the -d option. > can you give me a short excurse about how to do that, or a link where it is explained. (extracting the package? applying the patch? manual compile?)
(In reply to comment #9) > Please try this patch - if it doesn't work it should state what file it will > exec when called with the -d option. > I think I figuered it out. (http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Create_an_Updated_Ebuild) After applying the patch dhcpcd.exe is still not called but I get the following error Error, error executing " /var/lib/dhcpc/dhcpcd-eth1.info new": No such file or directory DHCPCD starts and functions nevertheless.
(In reply to comment #12) > Error, error executing " /var/lib/dhcpc/dhcpcd-eth1.info new": No such file or > directory > > DHCPCD starts and functions nevertheless. > Yeah, compiling dhcpcd-2.0.{5,6} with gcc-4.1.1 on ppc is trashing the variable that holds the program to run - compiling with gcc-3.4.6 works.
Created attachment 89741 [details, diff] increase arg count Thanks to JoseJX and lu_zero. Please test and report back
(In reply to comment #14) > > Please test and report back > Yes now it works. No errors no complains. And dhcpcd.exe is called. Thanks
dhcpcd-2.0.7 is in portage with this fix
