Hi

I need to have multiple instances of dhcp-relay (each VLAN on my
firewall can have a different instance, with a dedicated DHCP server).
I adapt the launch script to do that :

===== START OF /etc/init.d/isc-dhcp-relay ====
#!/bin/sh
#
#

### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides:          isc-dhcp-relay
# Required-Start:    $remote_fs $network
# Required-Stop:     $remote_fs $network
# Should-Start:      $local_fs
# Should-Stop:       $local_fs
# Default-Start:     2 3 4 5
# Default-Stop:      0 1 6
# Short-Description: DHCP relay
# Description:       Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Relay
### END INIT INFO

# It is not safe to start if we don't have a default configuration...
if [ ! -f /etc/default/isc-dhcp-relay ]; then
         echo "/etc/default/isc-dhcp-relay does not exist! - Aborting..."
         echo "Run 'dpkg-reconfigure isc-dhcp-relay' to fix the problem."
         exit 1
fi

case "$1" in
         start)
                 for file in `ls /etc/default/isc-dhcp-relay*`; do
                         SERVERS=""
                         INTERFACES=""
                         OPTIONS=""
                         . $file
                         file=`basename $file`
                         echo $file
                         DHCRELAYPID=/var/run/dhcrelay-$file.pid
                         OPTIONS="$OPTIONS -pf $DHCRELAYPID"
                         # Build command line for interfaces (will be
passed to dhrelay below.)
                         IFCMD=""
                         if test "$INTERFACES" != ""; then
                                 for I in $INTERFACES; do
                                         IFCMD=${IFCMD}"-i "${I}" "
                                 done
                         fi
                         start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile
$DHCRELAYPID \
                                 --exec /usr/sbin/dhcrelay -- -q 
$OPTIONS $IFCMD $SERVERS
                         done
                 ;;
         stop)
                 for file in `ls /etc/default/isc-dhcp-relay*`; do
                         file=`basename $file`
                         echo $file
                         DHCRELAYPID=/var/run/dhcrelay-$file.pid
                                 start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet
--pidfile $DHCRELAYPID
                 done
                 ;;
         restart | force-reload)
                 $0 stop
                 sleep 2
                 $0 start
                 ;;
         *)
                 echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/isc-dhcp-relay
{start|stop|restart|force-reload}"
                 exit 1
esac

exit 0

You can create multiple /etc/default/isc-dhcp-relay files with different
extensions.

Thanks a lot !
