Package: dhcp3-client
Version: 3.1.2-1
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
when connecting a debian system to a coupled DHCP+DNS system (e.g. using
dnsmasq)
dhcp3-client doesn't send the hostname to the server, so it's impossible to find
it afterwards.
dhcp3-client should send the hostname to the DHCP server, so that it can be fed
to the local DNS server. Manually changing the configuration file is too complex
a task for most people.
Thanks,
Xav
