Hello,

I've set a custom hostname via Tweaks page and want that this name is
used in dhcp requests. This seems to work for the ethernet interface but
not for the wifi interface:


Code:
--------------------
    
  7249 root      0:00 /sbin/udhcpc -b -i eth0 -x hostname:pcp1 -p 
/var/run/udhcpc.eth0.pid
  7826 root      0:00 /sbin/udhcpc -b -i wlan0 -x hostname:Kitchen Player -p 
/var/run/udhcpc.wlan0.pid
  
--------------------


It seems that dhcp.sh in /etc/init.d/ uses /etc/hostname for the
hostname option:


Code:
--------------------
    
  ...
  /sbin/udhcpc -b -i $DEVICE -x hostname:$(/bin/hostname) -p 
/var/run/udhcpc.$DEVICE.pid >/dev/null 2>&1 &
  ...
  
--------------------


/usr/local/etc/init.d/wifi seems to use the player name:


Code:
--------------------
    
  ...
  /sbin/udhcpc -b -i $INTERFACE -x hostname:$NAME -p 
/var/run/udhcpc.${INTERFACE}.pid
  ...
  
--------------------


Would it be possible to use the hostname here as well? Is there a way to
edit this script locally so that it persists during reboots?

Thanks!
