Folks,

After reinstalling my NetBSD firewall, all is well, except...

The firewall is attached to a cable modem, thus it gets its IP address via DHCP.  Every time I log in, after it boots, the machine name is dhcp-353-292, or something like that.  I am always logging in and changing the host name with the hostname command.  How do I do this automagically?
