When the Squeezebox requests an IP adress from a DHCP server, it doesn't
seem to send its own host name.
E.g. in Linux (Debian/Ubuntu), you can send the hostname to the DHCP
server by adding the following lines to /etc/dhclient.conf:

send dhcp-client-identifier 00:00:00:00:00:00;  // enter mac address
here
send host-name "host name";                     // change to your
host name

Since the Squeezebox doesn't send a host name, it's named "noname" by
the DHCP server, which is kinda ugly.

So I'd suggest to send the host name that was entered in the player
setup.
