Re: dhcp doesn't seem to set the hostname on a client

Hello,

I have one problem with the FAI clients: They boot perfectly using DHCP
(with kernel append ip=dhcp), but the hostname is set to the IP.

See the thread "fai trick: fix weird hostname" just some days ago in the 
mailing list archive. It includes a way how I solved this.
It's strange... Now it suddenly works. Maybe I really got the dhcpd 
config wrong?

Anyway, this is the part for this host in my dhcpd.conf now:
host demohost {
               hardware ethernet 00:03:23:af:92:f6;
               fixed-address 192.168.1.250;
               option host-name "demohost.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";
              }
Maybe I really forgot the "option" keyword...
Thanks everyone!
