RHBA-2008:0850 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
libdhcp bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated libdhcp packages that fix a bug are now available.
Description
libdhcp enables programs to invoke and control the Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) clients: the Internet Software Consortium
(ISC) IPv4 DHCP client library, libdhcp4client, and the IPv6 DHCPv6 client
library, libdhcp6client, and provides network interface configuration
services for network parameter auto-configuration with DHCP.
When systems used NFS-mounted root file systems, the hostname was not set
to the hostname received from the DHCP server. In these updated packages,
the hostname is correctly set on systems that use NFS-mounted root file
systems.
Users of libdhcp are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
resolve this issue.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
