dhcpcd-discuss

Hi,

I have a simple non urgent question, just for curiosity, because
everything is working well. I wonder why I have no
/var/lib/dhcpcd/duid file in one of my computers. Lease and secret
files are present in the /var/lib/dhcpcd directory.

Information on the computer:

It is a server, getting its (fixed) IPv4 and IPv6 addresses from a
main server, running ISC DHCP. This main server is properly defined,
using the duid for fixed IPv6:
host myserver {
  host-identifier option dhcp6.client-id xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx;
  fixed-address6 xxxx:xxxx:xxxx::xxxx:xxxx;
}

I have modified my startup script in order to now start in non master
mode with the single network interface.

# dhcpcd --version
dhcpcd 7.2.3
