Maybe I misunderstood what you were trying to solve. I use this script to force
my machine's configured hostname to be associated with a dynamic dhcp IP
address; if I do not do this, then my machine, which I named
foo.whateveriwant.com, will think that the dhcp interface is named something
like wkst0023.whateverthenetadminswant.com. So I do not know if this is what
you want.

Further, it is meant to handle just one entry in the hosts file.

Good luck.
