I just noticed that my dhclient.conf file seems to be ignored in 8.0. Worked fine in 7.2. interface "ath0" { send host-name "slan.XXX.YYY"; prepend domain-name "XXX.YYY "; append domain-name-servers 198.128.W.ZZ; } When I look at /etc/resolv.conf, neither the domain-name is added nor te dns-server. No errors or anything else in the logs. Anyone else see this or do I have a local problem? -- R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.

This change to the use of wlan0 has bitten me several places, but this is the first time I did not eventually spot it myself. Thanks, Tom. -- R.
