dhcpcd-10.0.6

dhcpcd の概要

dhcpcd は、RFC2131 にて定義されている DHCP クライアントの実装です。 DHCP クライアントは、DHCP を利用してネットワークアドレスが割り当てられたネットワークへのアクセスに用いられます。 dhcpcd は十分な機能を有すると同時に、大変軽量な DHCP クライアントです。

Privilege separation

Recent releases of dhcpcd optionally support privilege separation. As the practical security benefits of this are unclear for a program like dhcpcd and the setup is more complicated, the book currently defaults to disable it.

If you however would like to use privilege separation, additional installation steps are necessary to set up the proper environment. Issue the following commands as the root user:

install  -v -m700 -d /var/lib/dhcpcd &&

groupadd -g 52 dhcpcd        &&
useradd  -c 'dhcpcd PrivSep' \
         -d /var/lib/dhcpcd  \
         -g dhcpcd           \
         -s /bin/false       \
         -u 52 dhcpcd &&
chown    -v dhcpcd:dhcpcd /var/lib/dhcpcd 

dhcpcd のインストール

Build dhcpcd without privilege separation by running the following command:

./configure --prefix=/usr                \
            --sysconfdir=/etc            \
            --libexecdir=/usr/lib/dhcpcd \
            --dbdir=/var/lib/dhcpcd      \
            --runstatedir=/run           \
            --disable-privsep         &&
make

Alternatively, build dhcpcd with privilege separation by running the following commands:

./configure --prefix=/usr                \
            --sysconfdir=/etc            \
            --libexecdir=/usr/lib/dhcpcd \
            --dbdir=/var/lib/dhcpcd      \
            --runstatedir=/run           \
            --privsepuser=dhcpcd         &&
make

ビルド結果をテストする場合は make test を実行します。

root ユーザーになって以下を実行します。

make install

コマンド説明

--libexecdir=/usr/lib/dhcpcd: This switch sets a better location for the dhcpcd internal libraries.

--dbdir=/var/lib/dhcpcd: This switch adjusts the database directory because the default directory, /var/db, is not FHS-compliant.

--runstatedir=/run: This switch sets the runtime state directory because the default /var/run is a symbolic link to /run, and using /var/run is deprecated.

--disable-privsep: This switch disables privilege separation, which is the default in dhcpcd. This switch is not used in the build configuration where privilege separation is used.

--privsepuser=dhcpcd: This switch sets the privilege separation user in the build configuration where privilege escalation is used.

--with-hook=...: You can optionally install more hooks, for example to install some configuration files such as ntp.conf. A set of hooks can be found in the dhcpcd-hooks directory in the build tree.

dhcpcd の設定

設定ファイル

/etc/dhcpcd.conf

全般的な設定情報

To configure dhcpcd, you need to first install the network service script, /usr/lib/services/dhcpcd included in the blfs-bootscripts-20231119 package (as user root):

make install-service-dhcpcd
[注記]

注記

The default for dhcpcd is to set the hostname and mtu. It also overwrites /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/ntp.conf. These modifications to system files are done by hooks which are stored in /usr/lib/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-hooks. You can change this behavior by removing or adding hooks from/to that directory. The execution of hooks can be disabled by using the --nohook (-C) command line option or by the nohook option in the /etc/dhcpcd.conf file.

Finally, as the root user create the /etc/sysconfig/ifconfig.eth0 configuration file using the following commands. Adjust appropriately for additional interfaces:

cat > /etc/sysconfig/ifconfig.eth0 << "EOF"
ONBOOT="yes"
IFACE="eth0"
SERVICE="dhcpcd"
DHCP_START="-b -q -h $HOSTNAME <insert appropriate start options here>"
DHCP_STOP="-k <insert additional stop options here>"
EOF

For more information on the appropriate DHCP_START and DHCP_STOP values, examine the man page for dhcpcd.

設定情報: 固定IP

Although not usual, it is possible that you need to configure dhcpcd to use a fixed ip. Here, we give an example. As the root user create the /etc/sysconfig/ifconfig.eth0 configuration file using the following commands. Adjust appropriately for additional interfaces and for the actual ip and router you need:

cat > /etc/sysconfig/ifconfig.eth0 << "EOF"
ONBOOT="yes"
IFACE="eth0"
SERVICE="dhcpcd"
DHCP_START="-b -q -S ip_address=192.168.0.10/24 -S routers=192.168.0.1"
DHCP_STOP="-k"
EOF

You can either use DNS servers in /etc/resolv.conf from another system, your preferred servers, or just the example /etc/resolv.conf.head file below as is:

cat > /etc/resolv.conf.head << "EOF"
# OpenDNS servers
nameserver 208.67.222.222
nameserver 208.67.220.220
EOF

udev.so

adds udev support for interface arrival and departure; this is because udev likes to rename the interface, which it can't do if dhcpcd grabs it first
