On my dhcp client -H means use the hostname that the dhcp server
provided. Also, on my client, -h <hostname> means send the hostname TO
the dhcp server. You need the client to send a hostname to the server.
My best guess is that the client does NOT send the hostname TO the
server. It currently accepts a hostname sent BY the server to the
client.
Sorry for the "dumb down" ramble above, don't intend to be rude or
nothing, but years of internet use have made my written speech callous
at best ^.~
