I install machines via kickstart and they are setup as DHCP clients. The first time they boot up, they get an IP and then (presumably) lookup up that IP in DNS and it gets set as it's host name. The problem comes the next time you reboot the machine and suddenly it has a new IP, however it will still have the old hostname which will resolve to the old IP, not the new one. I'd like to have it such that each time it boots, it looks up it's IP which it was just assigned and sets the hostname accordingly. Know how to make it do that?
