setting alias for DHCP client



Dear .debs,

I would like to let our DHCP server know that my machine goes by more
than one hostname.  I already send the host-name, but would like to
add something like host-name-alias so it knows host and alias are the
same machine in a different guise.

Is there any parameter in /etc/dhclient.conf that fills this need?  I
went through the docs but nothing turned up.

The main motive for this is that it should then be possible for the
DNS server to use this information.  Long shot?  Better go talk to our
network admin?

Anyway, any ideas are welcome.
