Cannot relate warnings upon running dhclient
by Michael Uplawski from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5K92D)
Good afternoon.
For a long time already, dhclient gives me two warnings upon running Code:rosalind@dna:~$ sudo dhclient -dEvery run succeeds, though; therefore I have ignored the situation until now.
Here is the beginning of the output:

(...)And here is the *complete* configuration-file /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf". Most of the content are the original commented sections. I highlight the two lines 16 and 35 (1 curly bracket, only) from the console-output:
