That worked fairly painlessly on the Debian client... but F12 is still a

For now thats what I'm having to do. Apparently everyone on Fedora is
busy using Network Manager (gui tool that invades/usurps the traditional
networking config files), and no one knows where the dang config file
went to. In Ubuntu 9.10 Network Manager worked fine (there is a spot to
enter the host name when requesting a dhcp lease), but in F12 its not.
But nobody wants to hear *that*...
