Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation? i disabled ipv6 networking in /etc/sysctl.conf, and since then dhcp ip renewal fails with error relater to RFC-3442
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)? Disable ipv6 networking
* What was the outcome of this action? dhcp ip renewal fails with error relater to RFC-3442; lost of networking
* What outcome did you expect instead? well.. networking to work.. :-)
Longer desciption:
unsetting ipv6 (/etc/sysctl.conf -> net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 0 net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 = 0 net.ipv6.conf.lo.disable_ipv6 = 0) generates dhcp 3442 non zero exit error.
Disabling 3442 (dhclient.conf, removing request rfc3442-classless-static-routes) raises RTNETLINK answers: Permission denied
Sorry,typo: unsetting ipv6 (/etc/sysctl.conf -> net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1 net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 = d net.ipv6.conf.lo.disable_ipv6 = 1)
