My linux machine is in a network where the IP addresses are assigned using DHCP. I use "dhcpcd" to get the IP address but it also mangles my machine's hostname (probably because the DHCP server is not properly configured). Is there a way to query the DNS server for the correct hostname from the assigned IP address and assign it? Can this be automated? Thanks.
