Ok, dumb question, but given that my
/var/lib/dhclient/dhclient-eth0.lease info shows that I'm clearly
getting a hostname and domain name, why does "hostname" return
localhost.localdomain (and "domainname" returns "(none)")?
What do I need to enable to make this work?
Thanks,

Asked and answered:
chkconfig NetworkManager off
Huh? All that does is disable NetworkManager. It won't affect the
hostname unless the dhclient script changes it for you or you have a
hostname in /etc/sysconfig/network and run the old network startup code
("chkconfig network on").
The old network code is on by default.
I missed that earlier. Having both NM and the old code enabled
simultaneously used to be a spectacularly bad thing to do. They did not
play well with each other. I don't know if that's true anymore, but I'd
either enable NM and disable classic or vice versa, but don't have them
both enabled.
Also, have a look at where need_hostname gets called in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-post ...
