* send-hostname/DHCP Option 12 for lab environment? @ 2024-10-09 21:59 Thom R Harmon 2024-10-09 23:38 ` Felix Lechner via 0 siblings, 1 reply; 3+ messages in thread From: Thom R Harmon @ 2024-10-09 21:59 UTC (permalink / raw) To: help-guix Hello, folks. I have a lab environment where the DHCP server allows DHCP clients to register a name and then coordinates that name with the environment's DNS server to allow local clients to perform A record lookup. For the life of me I cannot configure how to tell Guix System DHCP client nodes to use send-hostname/DHCP Option 12. Anybody have an example? thx ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

Did you already try the 'host-name' option from the example in the manual page for dhclient? [1] I never tried it but you can probably pass a file-like object [2] as a 'config-file' field [3] to the dhcp-client-service-type. The '-H' option to dhclient looks like DHCP option twelve. [4] Kind regards Felix [1] https://linux.die.net/man/5/dhclient.conf [2] like this, https://codeberg.org/lechner/system-config/src/commit/a61e3731399bcd0f26a85688cd7ee37107b3266c/host/wallace-server/operating-system.scm#L473 [3] https://guix.gnu.org/manual/devel/en/html_node/Networking-Setup.html#index-dhcp_002dclient_002dconfiguration [4] https://github.com/isc-projects/dhcp/blob/572032cb0e514606559de3784e3f7ca8e1539d17/includes/dhcp.h#L101 ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

I will give that a try. My question came about less from unfamiliarity with ISC2 tools than from unfamiliarity with the Guix APIs and idioms. I was expecting perhaps some util function or param I could set as opposed to crafting the config syntax directly. Getting a feel for the idioms. Thanks again. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
