Is there a way to get dhclient to use nsupdate update the A ptr of the DNS server instead of using the the DHCP server to do it. Also, in the dhclient.conf file, is there a way to specify the maximum lease time which will be allowed. So if a dhcp server supplied the cleint with a leas time of 8 days, then a a lease time of 1 day would be used? Thanks Chip
