Hello Martin,

here I am, after having looked at the code.

Really the message given in the log is misleading. What WICD does is:

- is the option checked? Send to the DHCP server the hostname specified in the textbox
- is the option unchecked? Send to the DHCP server the hostname of the system (/etc/hostname or `uname -n`)

I guess the latter is harmless. Maybe I should clarify the log message?

Kindly,
David
