[Level 2] How to reserve ip (query only) from dchp server by dhclient in Ubuntu.

If you want to reserve ip (query only) from dhcp server by dhclient in Ubuntu,
you can use the following command to do so.
# dhclient -q -sf /dev/null -lf /tmp/dhclient.lease -pf /tmp/dhclient.pid
Then you can see the lease file (/tmp/dhclient.lease) to get more information.

PS. In my test, dhclient 3.1 ( in Ubuntu 10.04 ) will have an error with no permission.
Therefore, I download the latest version of dhclient (4.1) from isc.
you can get more information from here.

Wish this helps.

[Level 2] iif in Python

If you want to implement iif in Python, please refer to the following sample code: #!/bin/env python def iif(b): return 'It\'s True' if b else 'It\'s False' print iif(True) print iif(False) And the following sample, guess what will you get! #!/bin/env python b = True print 'b: %s' % 'Ture' if b else 'False' b = False print 'b: %s' % 'Ture' if b else 'False' Result: $ ./iif.py b: Ture False The second result is "False", not "b: False". Why??? Because the prededence of string concatenation is higher than if. Therefore you need to use () to make it correct. #!/bin/env python b = True print 'b: %s' % 'Ture' if b else 'False' b = False print 'b: %s' % ('Ture' if b else 'False') Wish this helps. regards, Stanley Huang
