When I boot Box 2, it gets its IP address, but DNS doesn't
get updated, so Box 2 is unknown to the LAN via its hostname.
If I boot a windows box (tested with 2000/XP), and I've tested with a
networked printer, they get an IP address, and DNS is updated
for those devices.



Add 'send host-name "gladiator";' to /etc/dhclient.conf or if you want to be more correct:
interface "em0" {
send host-name "gladiator";
}


Dont forget to change the em0 interface to what your interface really is.


Worked like a charm. Thanks _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
