It seems to be a morning for questions.

I have dhcpd running on a machine on my network with "get-lease-hostnames
on".

Some machines that use this dhcpd pick up their assigned lease hostname
which says that this function is working, as reported by /bin/hostname.

Others don't, staying with the default localhost.localdomain even though
there is a valid hostname in the DNS.

What determines whether the default hostname gets overridden by the
assigned hostname.
