		<description><![CDATA[Re: Send hostname by DHCP client

This is great!  I asked Google how to do that, and had NO IDEA what doors this answer would open.

My host is totally simple, and I was able to tidy up this fix with this &#039;Step 2&#039; :
2) Add /etc/dhclient-vmk0.conf to oem.tgz
$ mkdir /tmp/oem/etc
$ echo &quot;interface \&quot;vmk0\&quot; { send host-name \&quot;$(hostname -s)\&quot;; }&quot; &gt; /tmp/oem/etc/dhclient-vmk0.conf

(The interface &quot;vmk0&quot; and conf file &quot;-cf &quot; are described in &#039;ps -c &#124; grep dhc&#039; output)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For ESXi 4.0, the dhcp client changed - so for Step 2, use the below instead:

2) Create /tmp/oem/etc/rc.local.d/send-hostname:
if [ -r /var/run/dhcp-vmk0.pid ]; then
kill $(cat /var/run/dhcp-vmk0.pid)
/sbin/dhclient-uw -pf /var/run/dhcp-vmk0.pid -rt 90 -lf /var/lib/dhcp/dhclient-vmk0.leases -cf /etc/dhclient-vmk0.conf -4 -nw -d vmk0 -hn $(hostname)
