Hi everyone,

I currently run linux and am trying to switch to freebsd.  During
installation however, i cant get dhcp to configure my network right.
I subscribe to AT&T@home service, which uses dhcp.  With this service i
need send the dhcpd my hostname that they give me.  The way i do this in
Linux is:

dhcpcd -D -h <provided-hostname>

I assume this is for some sort of authentication purpose.

Anyway i cant figure out how to set up the dhcpclient in the install
process to do this.

Any help is much appreciated
Erich Heine
