Ah, sorry, Dan, seems I botched something... I had the
old /etc/dhclient-eth0.conf lying around when I used NM and
nm-dhclient-eth0.conf was

    # Created by NetworkManager
    # Merged from /etc/dhclient-eth0.conf

    send host-name "rhapsody";

/etc/dhclient-eth0.conf is *just* the last line above.
Now I've removed /etc/dhclient-eth0.conf, nm-dhclient-eth0.conf is just

   # Created by NetworkManager

In either case, the host name doesn't get set. I've also tried
restarting NM, nm-applet nm-system-settings to see if I can get the
"System eth0" entry back, but it's now just "Auto eth0", even though I
have the relevant files in /etc/sysconfig/...

Thanks,
James
