Description Sergey Ya. Korshunoff 2007-05-18 08:33:39 UTC
it looks like dhcpcd version 3+ can't get info by name (dhcpcd -I seyko)
with dhcpcd version 2.xx all OK

Reproducible: Always

dhcpcd-2.x didn't set Client ID correctly, dhcpcd-3.x does.

If you capture a wireshark trace of both dhcpcd-2.x and 3.x you can clearly see this.

Re-open if you disagree, attaching the wireshark traces.

In my case:
- with dhcpcd 3.xx Client ID is different each time and Client ID looks like random item (no any correlation with -I parameter)

- with dhcpcd 2.xx Client Id is -I parameter prefixed with \000

PS; how to use wireshark to get a trace?
