I'd like to specify a hostname that eth0 should pass to the dhcp server in 
use when it is brought up.  I could always manually edit it into the ifup 
script, but I'm wondering if I can specify this hostname in the ifcfg-eth0 
file.  

I'm well aware of the hostname field that exists in the 
/etc/sysconfig/network file, but I don't want this hostname to be applied 
system-wide, only to that specific nic when it is brought out.

I've done a google search to see if this would work, but I didn't find any 
good results with it.  Does anyone know if this idea of mine will work, and 
if so what I should call that field?
