I have my freebsd DHCP server set up and working great. Well great for Windows clients, but not much so for BSD clients.
Under the Windows clients I just set the host name and when the DHCP gets a request it dutifully does the job of assigning an IP address as well as putting in the proper DNS entries. I have tried the same for another BSD computer and it gets the IP address just fine but the request doesn't get passed on to DNS for updating.
I tried the dhclient.conf being blank and then also tried putting in entries as suggested by man 5 dhclient.
Any ideas on getting BSD to have the same behavior as Windows?
This is what I have for dhcpd.conf
option domain-name "squeaks.net";
option domain-name-servers msmouse.squeaks.net,204.127.198.4;
server-name "msmouse";
server-identifier 192.168.100.250;

secret "wouldn't you like to know";
};zone squeaks.net. {
primary 192.168.100.250;
key rndc-key;
}zone 100.168.192.in-addr.arpa. {
primary 192.168.100.250;
