Ok, your dhcpcd was used only with the -Y and -N arguments:
according to the man page you should the -H option for your needs.
Also, according to the /sbin/ifup file, the following section:
case $(basename $DHCP_CLIENT) in
dhcpcd)
[ -n "$DHCP_HOSTNAME" ] && DHCP_ARGS="-h $DHCP_HOSTNAME"
[ -n "$NEEDHOSTNAME" ] && DHCP_ARGS="$DHCP_ARGS -H"
the last line requires the NEEDHOSTNAME variable in your
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0.
So, add a line like this in your /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
file:
NEEDHOSTNAME=whatever
ifdown eth0 and ifup eth0.
This should use the -H option for your dhcpcd.
Other ideas... you coulod use other dhcp client (dhcp-client, pump, dhcpxd)
cheers,
