[Holger Levsen]I wonder if this is a bug in Debian Edu at all: don't we require hosts to be added to GOsa in the first place?Well, it is a bug in Debian Edu that the problem is obscure and hard to debug. I guess the issue should be detected and reported in the face of the person trying to set up a new machine, instead of the machine silently failing to keep its IP address
/me nods... I will propose a change of update-hostname-from-ip, so that it does not fail anymore with "exit 1" but pump big warnings to syslog instead.
Traditionally it was required to register clients in GOsa to ensure home directories could be mounted, not for it to get an IP address.
This is not the case anymore, since we moved from NFSv4+sec=sys to NFSv4+sec=krb5i. Now, Debian Edu clients simply need a krb5 host and service principal in Kerberos (which is handled via GOsa² again).
However, nearly silently failing (there was some ifupdown failure in syslog that lead me to the cause) should be avoided.
