Yes, I am using hostname like this:  hostname NAS-JC1  I did try using -H
parameter with udhcph but with no success like this: udhcpc -H NAS-JC1  and
like this udhcpc --hostname=NAS-JC1  since the syntax wasn't clear from the
help.

How exactly are you setting hostname in rc?
Are you executing hostname?

Have you tried using the -H parameter for udhcpc?
