 · The solution is to disable NM (right clik on its icon and uncheck the first option “Enable Netwroking” – this is so on Ubuntu , other version might look a bit different), kill existing dhclient processes, then establish the connection manually, run dhclient eth0, then run the above dhclient command to release the IP.  · Debian: /etc/www.doorway.ru Ubuntu: /etc/dhcp3/www.doorway.ru Open the file in your favorite editor and add one of two lines at the top, separating multiple DNS servers with a comma and ending the entry with a semi-colon: If you simply want to add static DNS servers to be used in addition to the ones provided by DHCP, use a prepend entry.  · While the DNS settings can be manually changed after each (re)connection, applying a permanent solution requires a bit of file fiddling. Method 1. Create /etc/dhclient-enter-hooks with the following contents: #!/bin/sh make_resolv_conf() {echo "doing nothing to www.doorway.ru"} Change its permissions to make it executable: chmod a+x /etc/dhclient-enter-hooksEstimated Reading Time: 30 secs.

The problem had to do with the way that DNS resolution is handled on linux systems: I found reading the dhclient manual that the leases are kept in a plaintext file and I made the assumption that the last entry gets read when renewing a current lease. This kindof works, but kindof doesn't. The dhclient can be extended by custom hooks. We are going to prepare a script that updates the DNS database whenever the virtual machine acquires an IP address. Our DNS update hook must be saved at /etc/dhcp/dhclient-eth0-up-hooks. The /sbin/dhclient-script shell script that comes with the dhclient package will execute the hook. To set a dns server. Edit /etc/dhcp/www.doorway.ru; uncomment line supersede domain-name-servers (or add this line, if you don't have it) and list your desired dns servers separated by coma, end with semicolon.

Adding the +i attr may be a solution but requires that you manually unset and re set it if you have to do some changes. You can, indeed, write some scripts on the client side (see man 8 dhclient-script). This topic is also explained in debian wiki: Another approach makes use of dhclient-script's hook scripts. According to dhclient-script(8).

The www.doorway.ru file is a free-form ASCII text file. It is parsed by the recursive-descent parser built into dhclient. The file may contain extra tabs and newlines for formatting purposes. Keywords in the file are case-insensitive. Comments may be placed anywhere within the file (except within quotes). Comments begin with the # character and end at the end of the line.
