[Bug 10239] Re: dhcp3-client: Does not send hostname to server by default

[Adrie]

Thanks for your quick response Mat.
The default was the first I've tried. 
I thought I had tried everything, but I overlooked post #23 about the FRITZ!Box 
that I have as well. The solution mentioned there works for me too !!

I don't understand the logic behind it, the FRITZ!Box already knows the MAC 
address (from the nic itself, I guess).
Upgrading the firmware did not change this behaviour, but it does now enable 
you to enter the hostname yourself.

[Bug 10239] Re: dhcp3-client: Does not send hostname to server by default

A week ago I installed Xubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope on my old Pentium Pro 
machine and this bug still seems to exists.
Spend days with trying to solve this, found many posts about it, none where 
recent though.
I have installed all the available updates, still the problem persists.
