Fedora NetworkManager and dhclient help request

[M D L]

Debian (Ubuntu) and Red Hat (Fedora) put their config files in
different places.  On Fedora, it looks like the file should
be /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf

You can look at:  /usr/share/doc/dhclient-4.2.1/dhclient.conf.sample for other examples that may help.
