Post your dhclient.conf file, so people can see what you've done. Tell us more about your DHCP server, too. Versions, configuration details, etc. I'm not using FC8, but I do use dynamic DNS tied in with my DHCP server, clients get assigned addresses, their names get entered into the local DNS, and I haven't had to customise their dhclient.conf files for it. -- (This computer runs FC7, my others run FC4, FC5 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.) Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I read messages from the public lists.
