DNS Update Option

#1 (**permalink**) 10-Jul-2006, 18:14

On our Netware DHCP server there was an option to update the Netware DNS
database with the hostname of the PC whose IP address was being assigned.
The option was called "DNS Update Option = 2".
Now we're moving the DNS and DHCP services to SuSE. Is there a similar
option in the Linux environment, that updates DNS with the DHCP-served
client's name and IP?
