[Kea-users] Raspberry PI 3B+ as DHCPv4 & DHCPv6 HA pair - auto start issue

[Tomek Mrugalski]

Hi Russell,

One CA is able to interface with dhcp4 and dhcp6. Why do you want to run
two of them? Is this about listening on v4 and v6 sockets? We could talk
about some extension to control agent, so it would maintain two sockets.
Would such a thing address your problem?

Also, for the specific issue, the location of pid file can be controlled
with KEA_PIDFILE_DIR environment variable. Since you're using packaged
version, the alternative does not appeal to you, but if you compile Kea
yourself, you can also alter localstatedir in configure script.

That's not a valid JSON. So no, that's not possible.
