Hi Indra,
I took ArchLinux for a spin earlier today and noticed that the default DHCP client is "dhcpcd" which maintains the lease file in a binary format.
Our choices:
1) See if we can move from dhcpcd to ISC DHCP or
2) Dump the lease file contents and update the cloud-set-guest-password script.
Arch Linux uses systemd instead of the traditional sysinit. The script will need
an overhaul to support systemd also.

Sweet. Thanks for the hint, saved me tons of R&D time. :)
I'll publish cloud-set-guest-* scripts for Arch Linux shortly.

Re: cloud-set-guest-password script for ArchLinux?
Posted by Kirk Kosinski <ki...@gmail.com>.
For dhcpcd, update the script to use the following instead of checking
lease files:
PASSWORD_SERVER_IP=$(dhcpcd -U eth0 | grep dhcp_server_identifier | cut
-f2 -d=)
This is similar to the change required to use pump.
PASSWORD_SERVER_IP=$(pump --status | grep 'Boot server' | awk '{print $3}')
dhcpcd is also the default(-ish) DHCP client for Gentoo. pump used to
be the default for Ubuntu and in some cases works better than the
default dhclient.
Best regards,
Kirk

Re: cloud-set-guest-password script for ArchLinux?
Posted by Indra Pramana <in...@sg.or.id>.
Hi Shankerbalan and all,
I managed to workaround that by installing NetworkManager (which comes with
dhclient by default) and disabling dhcpcd.
Also need to modify the script so that it will try to search the .lease
file on /var/lib/NetworkManager/* directory instead.
Other than that, the script works nicely with systemd without any issues.
Thank you.
