NetworkManager with dhcpcd should give you no issues since dhcpcd sends the hostname along with the dhcp request. dhclient does not with the defaults given by NetworkManager. You can easily create a default /etc/dhclient.conf with content: --- dhclient.conf --- send host-name = pick-first-value(gethostname(), "ISC-dhclient"); --- dhclient.conf --- the above is just a copy from the example configuration. if you have eth0, eth1, ... just create a symlink in etc since NetworkManager will pick up the /etc/dhclient-eth0.conf for eth0 ls -l /etc/dhclient.conf /etc/dhclient-eth0.conf if you have a dhcp which registers the clients to your dns server all should work fine now. -- Ike
