dhcpd is a server, dhcpcd is the client that's called by rcdhclient regards Anders On Sunday 16 September 2001 20.31, marsaro@interearth.com wrote:
No I am refering to the DHCP client, notice the space in the words, the ISC package is dhcpclient with conf of dhclient.conf. SuSE ships a package called DHCPD that is also a client, not server that is installed by default.If you have not changed the default call it with dhcpd, with the ISC version it is called with an rc script.

1) The DHCP client needs to be able to (easily) send its host name along with its DHCP request when booting. Same functionality as the command line "dhcpcd -h <hostname>".
I believe you have confused dhcpcd with dhclient. IFAIK, dhclient is the ISC program in SuSE, not dhcpcd (at least it was in 6.4). HTH. You can send the hostname via config (/etc/dhclient.conf) with dhclient.
