Greetings.
We use a modified dhclient-script under RHL to get /etc/resolv.conf setup properly according to our network configuration. SuSE supports both dhcpcd and dhclient, but the default is dhcpcd. Anybody can inform me on how to setup dhclient as the default DHCP client using AutoYaST?
Remove dhcpcd, and install dhclient. There are config options for that, its pretty easy to figure them out with YaST, using the autoinstall module (forgot it's name ;) ). Or just install dhclient next to dhcpcd, and edit the DHCLIENT_BIN variable in /etc/sysconfig/network/dhcp. There is a downside to this, and the reason why I switched over to dhcpcd: with dhclient you loose some automation. E.g. dhcpcd can configure /etc/ntp.conf if a time server is returned in the dhcp response. AFAIK dhcient does not do that. See /etc/sysconfig/network/dhcp. Cheers, Leen
