  If some of the config is coming from DHCP, does adding

    supersede host-name "sunny.rz1.convenimus.net"

to /etc/dhclient.conf, e.g., something along the lines of

  interface "xyz0" {
    ...
    supersede host-name "sunny.rz1.convenimus.net"
    ...
  }

make a difference?  (man dhclient.conf for more info)
