Hi,

all our clients get their IPs from out DHCP-Server. The DHCP-Server then
registers their hostnames in our DNS-Server.

Our Windows-Client do this properly, but our Redhat-Boxes do not appear
in our DNS-Server.

The Windows-Boxes do send the computername along with the dhcp-request,
Linux does not.

There is a some documentation about the dhclient.conf.

If I manualy call

dhlcient -H foo -I foo

then linux-box does get registered.

I created a /etc/dhclient.conf

send host-name foo
send dhcp-client-identifier foo

But RHEL does not seem to use this file.

Any ideas ?
