<pre wrap="">Fedora 17 and 18, until 0.9.7.997, left the DUID behavior up to

It is <b>*not*</b>.<br>
<br>
I assume that NM is suppose to be examining the lease file before
dhclient starts because it sure looks like it is dhclient that is
creating the default.<br>
<br>
I have a real-hardware system that I can reboot or whatever so if
you need me to test something, just tell me. I know that it is
frustrating on both sides if I say there is a problem and you cannot
reproduce it.<br>
<br>
If you need to see the configuration file, then I should probably
open a bugzilla report and file it there.<br>
<br>
BTW, I tried putting the default-duid in /etc/dhclient.leases and
also in /var/lib/dhclient.leases and the only thing that seems to
work is /var/lib/NetworkManager/dhclient6-<whatever>.lease<br>
