This small addition to the ifup script will fix a problem that occurs
if you are using
Dynamic DNS updates from your DHCP server. If that is the case you
must ensure that
any hostname passwd to the DHCP server does not contain the
domainname, otherwise
the entry in the DNS will contain the domainname twice.

Please include in next iniscript updates.

Thanks.
