DHCP and host names



Hi, I have managed to change my LAN from fixed IP to DHCP. I had somehow
expected the DHCP software to update my /etc/hosts file, so I would
still be able to ping hostname. In practice, this does not seem to work.
Now it seems that I have given up a little functionallity in the change
to DHCP. I do not find this addressed in the DHCP mini-howto.

Is there a simple solution around this?
