nickmoeckUm.... I think you want.... send host-name "hostname_here" ?00:00
nickmoeckin dhclient.conf, you'd use append send host-name "hostname_here"00:02
douglasawh-workyeah, got that00:02
douglasawh-workI'll post my .conf00:02
douglasawh-workhttp://pastebin.com/hQGbTVaP00:05
nickmoeckyou're sending the full fqdn instead of the hostname00:05
douglasawh-workearlier I was sending just the host name and it didn't work...but I've done some other things since then00:06
nickmoeckI would try: supersede send host-name "hostname"00:07
douglasawh-workyou mean instead of the send line I have now?00:09
douglasawh-workor in addition to?00:10
nickmoeckinstead of00:10
nickmoecksend host-name "hostname" is what you would put into resolv.conf if you were using a static resolv.conf file, it doesn't belong in a dhclient.conf file00:10
nickmoeckat least, that's how I understand it from looking at the docs for it00:12
douglasawh-workok, that didn't work.  NM uses dhclient, right?  Is there anything NM could be doing to ef it up?00:14
nickmoeckI think NM ignores dhclient.conf, it uses dhclient-eth0.conf (assuming eth0 is the interface you're using)00:16
douglasawh-worketh1...we clone machines and thus eth0 is taken by a non-existant MAC address00:18
nickmoeckapparently send host-name "hostname" is the correct syntax to use in dhclient.conf though. I must have misunderstood something somewhere00:18
douglasawh-workwell, it exists...on another computer00:18
nickmoeckso you'd use dhclient-eth1.conf instead of dhclient.conf00:18
douglasawh-workdoes NM not create that file?  It's not in the same dir00:20
nickmoeckI don't think NM creates it00:20
douglasawh-workNM doesn't appear to like that file any better.  This would be so much easier if I could assume the users were always going to be here and then I could just set the DNS servers statically in NM. There's no way to just set the search order or the name servers...you have to set both00:27
douglasawh-workI wish they would just flip the switch to use dhcp.epic.com rather than epicsys.com...that presumably would solve my problems00:28
douglasawh-worktime to call it quits on this for today.  Thanks for the help nickmoeck00:37
nickmoeckany time :)00:38

h00kthat's true. I was quite busy to hold anything around here for Maverick00:58
h00kWe had one down in Madison for Lucid Lynx00:59
nickmoeckI could probably make it to a party in Madison01:00
nickmoeckBy then, I might even have my mirror up (though I'm still not sure if I'll be making it public)01:02

h00kI have a 1TB I could probably use some space on and make a repo, or just get a dedicated repo box or drive.01:06
nickmoeckWell, hopefully by then, I'll have my rack in chicago set up01:06
h00kSo. Cool, Release Parties, Web Site status/updates/progress/blog aggregation/etc01:07
h00khow Maverick is for them01:07
nickmoeckSounds good.  When do you want to have the meeting? I'm thinking next Wednesday evening would be good01:08

h00kEr, never mind, theirs is this Thursday.01:09
nickmoeckWhat time do you want to do the meeting, h00k?01:23
h00knickmoeck: I think 8 would be appropriate? Does that work?01:24
h00kIt's after dinner time, not too late,01:24
nickmoeckWorks for me. If by 8, you actually mean 801:24

h00kApparently I'm not going to be in his wedding next summer.01:49
nickmoeckOh? Did they cancel it?01:50
h00kYeah...01:50
nickmoeckDo you know why?01:51
h00kYeah, we're getting into it now, they're not 'together' anymore. General differences, it seems.01:52
nickmoeckWell, better that they figured that out now, before the wedding01:52
h00kI concur.01:52
