Description Whit Blauvelt 2007-03-10 19:33:37 UTC
"ddns-update-style ad-hoc;" - or some variant on that - is required for recent versions of dhcpd to start. As of dhcp-3.0.3-r9 there's no such line in dhcpd.conf.example, which causes dhcpd to fail to start.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Arthur Hagen 2007-03-10 21:13:34 UTC
I'd vote for "or some variant of that", considering that ad-hoc is deprecated and does not work.  "none" might be a good choice.
Comment 2 Roy Marples (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-07-19 09:41:02 UTC
Fixed, thanks.

I used an update style of "none" which is in the example configs for 3.1
