The scripts are called ] with two or three arguments, depending on the con- ] dition, as documented in the table above. Now, I notice the table isn't there. It is in the man-page source though ... here's what it says: ] Condition arg1 arg2 arg3 ] --------- ------- ------- ------- ] lease up eth0 1.2.3.4 ] renewal renewal eth0 2.3.4.5 ] release down eth0 So in the case of a renewal teh script should expect 'renewal', <dev>, <ip> as the three args.
