Public bug reported: Despite the fix in 2012 (bug #991360) the default configuration shipped with isb-dhcp-client /etc/dhclient.conf in 2021 still does not set the DHCPv6 hostname option by default. All it needs is:
# send host-name with DHCPv6 not just DHCPv4 send fqdn.fqdn = gethostname(); Without this option it causes dhcpy6d's dynamic DNS update (to bind9) to fail because the hostname is empty. ** Affects: isc-dhcp (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: Despite the fix in 2012 (bug #991360) the default configuration shipped with isb-dhcp-client /etc/dhclient.conf in 2021 still does not set the DHCPv6 hostname option by default.
