retrieve dhcp options

I try to create my own dhcp options ( dhcp-options) in my server and send it to my client
It seems to work fine because I find my option in the dhcpd.leases file on my client.
I don't want to play with the dhcpd.leases file.

When I try to recover the dhcp options with dhclient.scripts, it gives me only default options

In fact, all I want is retrieve and use the information sent by my dhcp server and use some of this information for a custom script (or program). Is there a command that can interrogate the information send by my dhcp server?

The documentation in 'man dhclient-script' indicates that hooks can be added for non-standard options, both when an interface is brought up and brough down. Are you saying that that is not working for you? If so, could you be more specific about the problem?

sounds like you might have use for a packet sniffer: http://www.wireshark.org/

It's good now, I use the dhclient-exit-hooks.d and no more dhclient-enter-hooks.d

Thx a lot
