I haven't run DNS+DHCP where Windows was the server, mine's the other
way around.  Perhaps you should post your /etc/dhclient-*.conf script.

A client can send and request various information, much of what's
possible is optional.  Some of it contrary (e.g. with Windows, I found
ticking the register with DNS option caused it to not attempt to do,
unticking caused it to do so).

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
I read messages from the public lists.
