 Hi,

 I've been trying all day to get my LFS dhcp clients to get the hostname
 from the dhcpd server. As it turns out it doesn't set this because the
 script checks if the hostname string is empty, which it is not because LFS
 sets this to "(none)", even if I set HOSTNAME="" in
 /etc/sysconfig/network.

 At this moment I didn't find which script sets this to (none). I've looked
 at /etc/rc.d/init.d/localnet, which does set the hostname, but it doesn't
 seem to be it.

 Please advice and maybe it would be nice to change the script?

 Thanks!
 Jonathan
